Part one in a trilogy of whiskies aged in casks seasoned with Japanes green tea, in this case Gyokuro. Casks: 90% Gyokuro-saturated Ex-Bourbon casks, 200L (whisky stored since 2013) 10% Ex-Bourbon cask, 200L from 2007 Notes according to Mackmyra: Nose: The aroma is fresh and sweet, where lemon meets ripe pineapple and vanilla. Green elements in the form of herbs, green leaves, and seaweed are also present and become more pronounced as the whisky is aired. A hint of arrack is found high up in the glass. Taste: In the taste, the tea and whisky harmonize in a delicate manner. Vanilla and dried fruit are embraced by subtly bitter tea tones and freshly cut grass. The citrus notes persist from the aroma. Finish: The finish is medium-length with a distinct tea character. Some herbal notes are introduced, and the arrack reappears, all enveloped in sweet tones of dried fruit.
