Thank you very much for your continued patronage of Azabu Juban BAR Shinkai.
Today we are pleased to announce the arrival of the new limited edition Single Malt Tsunuki 2022 Edition from the Mars Tsunuki distillery, Honbo Brewery.
The Mars Tsunuki distillery will be in its sixth season in 2022.
As the Tsunuki distillery, this is the third release of the Single Malt Tsunuki 2022 Edition, following the first release Tsunuki THE FIRST and the second release Tsunuki Peated.
Brilliant, mature, sweet fruity aroma and baked pastry-like savouriness
Compared to Tsunuki the First, it has by far the most floral and sweet fruit aroma.
The sweetness of the fruit, the savoury aroma of baked sweets, the woody, sweet taste derived from bourbon barrels and the acidity of passion fruit combine to create a pleasant aftertaste.
This is one of those bottles where you get the feeling that the quality of the pure form of whisky at the Tsunuki distillery is improving.We felt that it is greater value for money than most of the whiskies released by craft distilleries in recent times.
This is a whisky that you should try, as it is relatively limited and easy to get hold of.
