Ohishi Distillery 8 Year Old Ex-Sherry Cask
The Whisky is distilled in traditional Japanese stainless steel pot stills before getting some beauty rest in ex-sherry and brandy casks, in the mountainous Japanese countryside. Being aged at such high altitudes yields an elegant Sherry symphony. This Ohishi Sherry Cask is a blend of casks anywhere from 3 to 25 years old.
