Mashed, fermented, distilled, matured and bottled in Japan, per the Japan Spirits & Liqueurs Makers Association standard.
Grain whisky treated as a headline product rather than blending filler, which is unusual anywhere. Made on continuous Coffey stills at Miyagikyo. Sweet, thick, almost corn-like. An easy recommendation for someone who thinks they dislike whisky.
