An outstanding Sherry bomb, possibly superior to Taketsuru 21 (though not Hibiki 21). Some have suggested this is Nikka based on flavor profile similarities to this and Taketsuru, such as dark chocolate, ginger, oranges, raisins, nuts, berries, and so on. Whispers on whiskybase have proposed it's a blend of Nikka malt and Kawasaki grain. Others have theorized it originates from a sake distillery, pointing to Eigashima, Saburomaru, and Hanyu as possibilities. Regardless of its origin, its quality is paramount.
