Ichiros Malt & Grain, 46%

Review #485

This is a worldwide blended whisky, which suggest that it isn’t Japanese whisky only. Light and sweet in the smell. Caramel, like Werther’s Original, and white fruits. Sweet pears with a hint of pineapples and coconut.

Again light and fruity in the taste and hints of oak and a mix raisins and dates mixes in. The finish is long and warm and covers your mouth in caramel oiliness and wood spices.

Not overly complex, but in every other way it gets the job done. The malt whisky and the grain whisky is very well chosen and very well put together! I will give this 84/100 (21/22/21/20).
