Glendalough 7 Years Old MIZUNARA FINISHED Batch No. 001 46% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

Triple distilled in pot stills, not cool filtered. Alcohol content when bottled in barrels approx. 64% vol. Single malt whiskey initially matured for around 7 years in ex-bourbon barrels, then finished for 6 to a maximum of 12 months in rare Mizunara oak barrels (500L, Level 3 charred). 

The extraordinary wood from the Japanese island of Hokkaido is laboriously crafted into barrels; it is particularly brittle, so
it releases a lot of flavor into the whiskey. This means that the angel's share, the evaporation during ripening, is particularly high. 

The combination of the influences of wood from the Japanese north and the Irish barley climate produces a unique single malt.

Lively, fruity and floral on the nose. On the palate, fresh citrus aromas combined with orchard fruits. An opulent, soft mouthfeel. Biscuit-like malt notes throughout. Vanilla, caramel and honey flavors from the bourbon barrels. The Mizunara wood brings with it dark chocolate, orange, sandalwood and cinnamon. These diverse and well-integrated flavors are rounded off with a long finish of toasted oak and oriental spices
