Nine years, one cask, 180 bottles in a 375mL format that makes collecting serious single casks genuinely affordable.

Artist Razigla's label carries the legend, and Raising Glasses donates 5% of profits to Thailand's Love Foundation. Kinnara is one of a pair of Thai casks the bottler fell for: this, the more floral and resonant of the two, is nicknamed the \"female\" cask beside its oakier sibling.
