This 2020 release was paired with a similar apple brandy wood finish from Nikka’s Miyagikyo Distillery, and has a gentle peatiness on the nose along with notes of apple pie, oak, soft spices, honey, caramel, and a hint of toffee. The taste has spicy touches of clove and allspice complemented by honey, caramel, and red apples. The finish has lingering spices along with a fruity tartness. (February, 2021)
