    Kanosuke

    Kanosuke Distillery, established in 2017, has quickly become one of Japan’s most exciting whisky producers. Situated on the coastline of Kagoshima Prefecture, known for its stunning sunsets, Kanosuke’s location offers a unique maritime influence on the whisky maturation process. The distillery is a part of the Komasa Jyozo company, which has a long history of shochu production, and has since expanded to crafting exceptional single malt whiskies under the leadership of Yoshitsugu Komasa. Kanosuke’s distinctive approach includes the use of three different pot stills, each contributing its own character to the whisky. This innovation, combined with the distillery’s commitment to excellence, allows Kanosuke to create complex, yet approachable single malts that reflect the company’s dedication to craftsmanship.

    Tasting notes

    NOSE
    Fruity and Rich

    The nose is filled with inviting aromas of dried fruits, including raisins and figs, complemented by rich sherry notes. There is a touch of vanilla and honeyed sweetness, balanced by hints of toasted oak and light spices.

    PALATE
    Smooth and Full-Bodied

    Smooth with layers of dried fruit, honey, and rich malt. The influence of sherry casks adds depth, with flavours of dark chocolate and a hint of dried herbs. The whisky is full-bodied yet elegant, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice.

    FINISH
    Long and Mellow

    Long, soft, and mellow, with lingering notes of dried fruits, oak, and subtle spice. The whisky’s warmth and depth create a satisfying end, like the slow, tranquil setting of the sun over the East China Sea.
