The Kosshi-No Shinobu Blended Whisky, a premium Japanese whisky from Shinobu Distillery in Niigata. This 700ml bottle (43% ABV) features a Mizunara Japanese Oak finish, delivering a sophisticated blend of malt and grain whiskies. The whisky exhibits complex tasting notes with butter, coconut candy, and musk grass on the nose; subtle nuttiness and hints of Chinese incense on the palate; and sandalwood and vanilla on the finish. The presentation includes an ornate decorative box adorned with traditional Japanese artwork featuring a dragon motif in brown and gold tones. The bottle displays the characteristic amber-gold liquid within clear glass, with a black cap and dual-language labeling (English and Japanese). This expression represents Shinobu Distillery's Master Blender's craft, combining ex-Bourbon and ex-Oloroso sherry cask-aged components with rare Mizunara oak finishing. The packaging and presentation suggest this is a premium offering from the distillery's portfolio.
