Production
Crafted with the finest locally sourced rice from the idyllic surroundings of Mizukami-mura, and distilled with pristine water from the Kuma River, the Islay Cask Finish undergoes a meticulous aging process. Our whisky is initially matured in traditional Japanese casks before finding its final resting place in imported Islay whisky casks. This unique double maturation process imparts the character and complexity that sets our Islay Cask Finish apart from others.
