“Cedar, pine, and incense on the nose. Smells young, a bit hot. Palate is more cedar, more incense, tea-like savoriness. Finish is quick, with a final whiff of cedar/pine and young spirit coming through. Very good, very unique. Incredibly enjoyable. Close your eyes and it will whisk you away.”

Austin Hatch

Kaiyo Whisky

Kaiyo Whisky is very intriguing indeed, starting out as a teaspooned malt (with the bulk of the malt whisky coming from one distillery, along with a drop of malt whisky from another distillery, meaning it can't be called a single malt). It's matured in mizunara oak - mizunara can impart a wonderful array of flavours to the whisky, though its notoriously difficult for coopers to work with. Not only that, it spends a portion of its maturation at sea, helping to evolve its flavour profile further.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Orange peel, jasmine, a hint of coastal air, soft cedar.
