Suntory Whisky Toki (750ml)

From Shimamoto, Osaka, Japan

Nikka Whisky From The Barrel (750ml)

From Tokyo, Japan

94WHA #1 Top 20

Notably balanced and elegant, the colorful palette of whiskies combines for tremendous depth of flavor. Soft, sweet butterscotch and orange peel meet poached pears and stone fruits. Earthiness appears as dried autumn leaves, coffee, old oak, and tobacco. Among the tangle of spices, tasters identified chili pepper, allspice, cloves, and universally adored its ginger note. Finally, wisps of smoke and sea salt. Overall, it feels generously malty, with the grain whisky lending broad sweetness and supple mouthfeel across the long finish.

Nikka Yoichi Single Malt Whisky (750ml)

From Tokyo, Japan

94BTI

Clear gold color. Aromas of green pear and coriander, cherry blossom, jamon iberico and melon skewer, and sea spray with a velvety, vibrant, dry-yet-fruity light-to-medium body and a peppery, very complex, long toasted peanuts with coconut sugar, Carr’s wheat crackers, chrysanthemum tea, honeyed-smoked turkey, creme de cassis, ginger, sweet potato pie, and lemon balm and white pepper finish. A lovely and refined Japanese whiskey that displays its enormous character with poised restraint.

Light gold color.

An elegant, nuanced journey of the senses.

A superb and evolving whisky for thoughtful contemplative sipping.

Ohishi Islay Cask Whisky (750ml)

From Japan

90WHA

The legacy of the cask’s history imparts more smoke than peat. It hasn’t overpowered the spirit, but the whisky is light enough to be put in the shade, with singeing smoke, coal dust, vanilla, and asphalt. Sweet rice, vanilla, honey, and warm spices of ginger root and black peppercorn, before a late arrival of peat. Milk chocolate, burnt driftwood, toffee, and a little residual pepper on the finish. (636 bottles)

Fukano Distillery 10yr Whisky (750ml)

From Hitoyoshi, Kumamoto, Japan

Ohishi Sherry Cask Whisky (750ml)

From Japan

87WHA

This has the warming comfort of cask strength rice pudding, with just enough rice character peeking through the sherry. Marzipan, sultana, fig, and toasted spice. Nutty amontillado notes load up on dried fruits, including apricot, mango, and apples pricked with cloves. The late phase includes black cherry, old leather, cola-flavored candy, and burnt fruitcake. A quick fizzle of spice and dried fig turns slightly savory.

Fukano Distillery Vault Reserve #1 Whisky (750ml)

From Hitoyoshi, Kumamoto, Japan

Fuji Blended Whisky (700ml)

From Gotemba, Shizuoka, Japan

92WHA

Jota Tanaka, Kirin’s chief blender, utilizes all the versatility of the complex production at Fuji Gotemba Distillery to create this truly superb non-chill filtered whisky. The dark vanilla, toffee brittle, macadamia nuts, heady incense, and singed oak have instant appeal. Sweet popcorn smothered in milk chocolate rotates through cherry, damson, and red apple, settling on a palate of toffee apple spiked with pepper and licorice. Tingling spices on a drying finish.

From Mishima, Osaka, Japan

Kangakoi 7yr Single Grain Whisky (750ml)

From Yunomae, Kumamoto, Japan

95WE

Aged for seven years in ex-Sherry casks, this is a rich and elegant fruitcake of a whiskey. Look for a burnished gold hue and pear and spice aromas. The soft palate is loaded with figs, dates and cherries drizzled with maple syrup. This is a dessert-worthy, beautiful sipper.

Nikka Coffey Malt Whisky (750ml)

From Tokyo, Japan

93BTI

Bright golden amber color. Fruity, creamy aromas and flavors of banana cream pie with whipped cream, coconut macaroon, spicy fruit compote, and amber perfume with a satiny, vibrant, fruity medium-to-full body and a tingling, elegant, long creme brulee, nougat, spiced nuts, and sassafras finish. A sensationally vibrant and elegant whisky.

Ohishi Brandy Cask Whisky (750ml)

From Japan

Ohishi Tokubetsu Reserve Whisky (750ml)

From Japan

92WHA

This is a nuanced delicacy, so tread lightly. It offers a nose of rich apple, oloroso sherry, cranberry, pepper, fennel, star anise, and a touch of milk chocolate. The sherry casks are at play: dark ruby fruits, peppery spice, and cinnamon. The mouthfeel holds steady, with Cola Cubes, stewed blackberry, and apple peels as the spices fall out, ending with cocoa-dusted dried fruits.
