Fukano Chizuru x Women Who Whisky Japanese Whisky

This small batch release of Fukano Whisky has been created in collaboration with Women Who Whiskey to celebrate the career of Chizuru Fukano.

The whisky was matured in used Oak, Manzanilla Sherry and Red Wine casks. This collaboration with the international Women Who Whiskey club is a sessionable sipper with complexity and backbone that would also work well in a refreshing cocktail.

TASTING NOTES

“Nose: So much going on here. Fresh raspberries under a hot sun. A Coffee note weaves through then transitions into an earthy, exotic note of rooibos tea. A bright little zing of slightly underripe strawberries with an undertone of hyacinth, then redwood!

Palate: A burst of allspice on the front palate. Very lightly stewed golden plum mid-palate, a hint of thyme, then more of that woodsy earthiness–like a dry, evergreen forest—that was found on the nose.

Finish: Rose petals just before they lose the bloom. A strong under note of cacao and a little bit of milky coffee with a lingering finish.”
