Description
Distilled in Okinawa and bottled at 43% ABV, Hayashi 8 Year Ryukyu Whiskey is a single-grain Japanese whisky matured for eight years in bourbon casks. The island's tropical heat and humidity speed up the aging process, giving the 700 ml bottling a depth and roundness that reads older than its stated age.
The palate opens with sea salt caramel and charred maplewood, then moves through shale minerality, cinnamon spice, hazelnut and ginger. The finish stays warm and well-structured.
