SOUTHERN / AMERICAN / PACIFIC WINE & SPIRITS® Chivas Regal Mizunara Blended Scotch Whisky (Scotland) [IWSC 93] – 6057116172447

Notes from the Maker:
In honor of the Japanese art of tradition and whisky-making, Mizunara, a rare and unique oak from Japan, has been used to marry some of this exclusive blend.

The world’s first Scotch whisky selectively finished in Japanese Mizunara oak casks. Chivas Mizunara is a perfect marriage of Scottish craft and Japanese tradition. This rare oak gives gentle aromatic flavors; the resulting whisky is wondrously indulgent with a touch of spice.
Because blended is better, in life and in Scotch.

Color: Warm Amber.
Nose: Rich and fruity, presenting aromas of pear and orange.
Taste: Smooth and rich with honey sweetness and a trace of hazelnut.
Finish: Distinctive and spicy

“Delectably round with lush flavours of poached pears, apricots and creamy white chocolate. Lovely bite to the finish with lingering notes of bright citrus and smoky grains.”

“Master blender Colin Scott’s use of mizunara oak makes for an impressively different nose from Chivas Regal 12 year old. Pecans, sandalwood, coriander seed, honeycomb, peanuts, and rich oak aromas herald a warming dram with fabulously developed orange zest and vanilla toffee flavors, before a more assertive finish of dark toffee and tenacious spices.” – Whisky Advocate

“This is an excellent whiskey.” – Forbes
