This year, Yusa Distillery will again offer a single malt Japanese whisky, which can be considered the “origin” of the house style.
The original whisky is carefully selected from those matured in bourbon casks. It is characterized by its clean, fruity taste and sweet, vanilla-like flavor.
YUZA 2024” has evolved and gained depth through maturation. Please enjoy it as a “staple” of the Yusa distillery.
Characteristics of aroma and taste
In a word, “clean, sweet and fruity. Vanilla, honey, and fruity sweet aroma. Fine and clean sake quality, smooth, refined and well-balanced taste.
The pot stills used are made by Forsyth, there are five fermentation tanks, and Canadian bay pine is used. The distillery uses the Scottish method of distilling and aging, and only single malt whisky is produced, with no young whisky casked, and only whisky that has been fully matured to its satisfactory level. Because it is a small distillery that cannot mass-produce whisky, they go to great lengths in every detail to produce the highest quality whisky with the utmost care and attention.
At “BAR SHINKAI”, we offer small quantities such as 45ml: 4,290 yen, 30ml: 2,860 yen, and 15ml: 1,430 yen per glass.
