ABV: 59%

Country: Japan

Single Cask Komagatake Minami Shinshu IPA Beer Cask Finish is a distillery-only release, dropping today. Specs-wise we're looking at a 3.5 year matured whisky, given the distillation in Feb-March 2016 and bottling in October 2019. That maturation takes place in an ex-Bourbon barrel, and for the finish it's moved to a super-hoppy IPA cask.

Expect a slightly bitter palate, and also enjoy some fresh citrus on the nose. Lightly peated with 3.5ppm.

Only 217 bottles at 700ml of this one are coming along at 59% abv.
