Thank you for visiting Azabujuban BAR Shinkai aka Hidden Lounge.
Today we are pleased to announce the arrival of the new limited edition “Single Malt Komagatake 2021 Edition” from Hombo Shuzo.
Mainly malt spirit aged in bourbon barrels and sherry casks
When drink straight, the aroma is fruity and gorgeous. The first attack gives the impression of being slightly alcoholic, but gradually the mellowness of the sherry casks comes into the picture.
The fruity, sweet and mellow flavor derived from the sherry casks can be felt more clearly than the vanilla-like aroma and flavor that is characteristic of bourbon casks. After a little time, the whisky becomes more mellow, and when a small amount of water is added, the alcohol taste weakens and the gorgeousness increases.
