We're not overly familiar with Japanese whisky, but with Thompson Brothers bottling the first ever Kanosuke available in the UK market, we had to get our hands on a sample to try.
There's such a limited quantity of whisky coming out of Dornoch, so we were overjoyed to have the chance to try another single cask.. does it live up to expectations?
Can quality and value be found in blended malts? We're interested to find out as more independent bottlers release their own takes on this category of whisky.
We enjoy when Independent bottlers try new things, and a Ben Nevis in an ex-rye cask is new to us. We're comparing this with a slightly more common PX finish... which will we prefer?
