Tasting Notes

SMELL: Waves of spice give way to vanilla and honey.

TASTE: Caramel and hazelnuts course through dark chocolate.

FINISH: Luxuriously long, warming, smoky finish.

Snowed in at home, our Director of Whisky Creation, Dr. Bill, began dreaming of this whisky. His goal was to capture the snug and magical feeling of sitting in front of the fireplace as snow blankets the world outside. In pursuit of rich, radiant taste and wintery aroma, he finished the 13-year-old single malt in Marsala wine casks from Sicily.
The experience begins with light flurries of fruit and honey, building to torrents of cocoa dust, flakes of red pepper and chunks of brazil nut toffee. It culminates in a feels-like-forever finish that swirls with cinnamon, ginger and clove.

About the Brand

Founded in 1823, Fukano Distillery is located in Hitoyoshi City, of the Kumamoto Prefecture of Japan on the island of Kyushu. Hitoyoshi is surrounded by mountains and is known for its pure water and nature. Shigeruriku Fukano is the fifth generation of his family to run the distillery. They use a combination of malted and un-malted rice to make their whisky in a pot still. These releases are very limited in nature and only a few casks are bottled each year. For 2016 they have released a few single new oak casks and also one white label marriage of sherry and new oak casks. Fukano Distillery makes a wonderful whisky that is sold in export markets only and is not to be considered as a Japanese Whisky. It is a Whisky that is distilled, matured, and bottled in Japan.

Our Process

LOCALLY GROWN RICE, A PURE WATER SOURCE & CHARRED BARRELS

Because rice is a clean, sulfurless, distillate it doesn’t require copper stills to produce a drinkable beverage and is instead distilled in stainless steel still and distilled at a relatively low proof. After distillation the shochu, which would be called new make outside of Japan, is then transferred to new charred oak barrels and laid to rest in a warehouse that more closely resembles a Scottish dunnage than a Kentucky Rickhouse.

Introducing Código 1530’s first-ever double barrel-aged Rosa-Reposado tequila with country icon George Strait. 

Long before the tequila had a name, country music icon George Strait had been drinking this private tequila for years. He even wrote a song about it.  George Strait is offering this very limited edition bottle of his new Código 1530 Rosa-Reposado Tequila for his fans to enjoy.

Código 1530, the first brand to produce a naturally pink-hued tequila by resting their pure Blanco expression in the finest French white oak Cabernet wine barrels, created Código 1530 Tequila Rosa Blanco. Rosa-Reposado is a special edition twist to that original.  

This Limited Edition Código 1530 Rosa-Reposado tequila started its aging process in the finest French white oak Cabernet wine barrels, then finished in Spanish Sherry wine barrels to add extra character and a soft, sweet finish. 

The Smoky Twelve is the perfect marriage of fruit,malt, oak and rich layers of smoke. Crafted from a combination of unpeated and peated spirit and three cask matured for at least twelve years in bourbon barrels, sherry casks, and Marsala wine casks. The whisky from each cask is then expertly married together to create a smooth, creamy single malt, multilayered with flavours of ripened fruit, aromatic smoky sweetness and warming oak spice.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE: Smoked vanilla, charred orange and toasted almond

RACHEL BARRIE MASTER BLENDER

"Longer maturation brings more aromatic layers to our distinctive smoky style. For me it's baked orange in a wonderful cake, fired over an open fire, with dark chocolate flavour."

Severo Añejo is deep amber in appearance, alerting tasters to its bold, complex flavor. Small-batch, hand-crafted, hand-numbered 100% Blue Weber Agave tequila. Aged 18 months in White American Oak. Carefully guarded family recipe dating back nearly 100 years.

A super premium, small batch spirit that is carefully crafted with a commitment to environmental sustainability and support for the local community, Mijenta’s Reposado is aged up to six months in a blend of American white oak, French oak and French acacia casks. As with Mijenta’s Blanco, Mexico-based Maestra Tequilera Ana Maria Romero oversaw the entire creation process of the Reposado. Presenting a more mature and fuller expression with a long finish on the palate, the Reposado is best enjoyed neat, on the rocks or as a nightcap cocktail, such as an Old Fashioned. It pairs well with dry fruit, soft cheeses, game meat, as well as flavorful Asian dishes. For dessert, Reposado is best savored with vanilla flavors, coconut and semi-bitter chocolate.

A limited number of bottles will be available, with only 6,500 produced in the first batch.

Tasting Notes:

On the eye: Light golden hue, Bright and Transparent with a powerful body.

On the nose: A delicate and inviting vanilla nose with notes of bergamot, honey, preserved fruits and orange blossom flowers.

On the palate: Rich flavors of cooked agave, honey, vanilla with a mid-palate of cacao nibs. A long and generous finish on the palate.

Stauning Smoke tastes like a hot summer's day on the moor; a mildly smoked single malt whisky made from pure West Jutland malt barley smoked over locally harvested peat and heather. A thoroughbred terroir whisky that gently will blow you away.

Stauning Smoke is the quintessence of the distillery's innovative New Nordic-whisky philosophy: Made from pure local ingredients, malted on open floors, smoked over peat and heather found in the landscape surrounding Stauning, double-distilled in small flame-heated pot stills and finally aged on 1st Fill wine and spirits casks.

The result is an elegant and refined whisky with a gentle smoky taste and a complex character that oozes of the dunes, the heath and the wind by the North Sea.
