Ohishi 8 Year Sherry Cask Whisky: Rice Whisky with Dark Fruit, Cocoa, and Spice

Ohishi 8 Year Sherry Cask Whisky is a Japanese rice whisky matured for eight years in a sherry cask. Ohishi Distillery uses locally grown rice and water from the Kuma River region, applying generations of rice-spirit experience to oak-aged whisky.

The sherry cask contributes raisins, figs, cocoa, vanilla, cinnamon, and tobacco around the rice whisky’s soft texture and gentle sweetness. The barcode attached to this listing matches the 43.6% ABV bottling.
