Crafted Excellence

Shinobu 10-Year-Old Pure Malt undergoes an intricate aging process. It is first matured in ex-bourbon casks, where it develops a base of rich sweetness, caramel, and vanilla notes. The whisky is then finished in rare and revered Japanese Mizunara oak casks, imparting distinctive characteristics of sandalwood, delicate spice, and a hint of floral elegance. This dual-cask maturation results in a whisky of remarkable depth and balance, embodying the spirit of Japanese craftsmanship.
