Kaiyo The Peated is matured initially for two years in ex-Madeira wine barrels to impart a sweetness and softening balance to its level of peat. It is then transferred to Japanese Mizunara Oak, where it continues to mature for the rest of its days until Kaiyo's Master Blender deems it ready for bottling and enjoyment. All our whiskies are made from malted barley, remain un-chill filtered, and enjoy a three-month ocean maturation that helps bring out the unique flavors that can only be obtained from Mizunara Oak.
Tasting Notes:
Commonly and enthusiastically nicknamed the “Sweet Peat”. On the nose, peat is present but is finely balanced with exotic fruit notes and rich honey. On the palate, this whisky is deceivingly light and clean with fruit flavors of apple, coconut, pineapple, burnt orange and watermelon with a lingering smoke that compliments the sweet components perfectly.
