This is the second in the W series, which is the successor to "Prologue W" released in 2021, and is composed of undiluted whiskeys from the wood-burning direct-fire distiller W. "Single Malt Japanese Whiskey Shizuoka Pot Still K Pure Japanese Barley First Edition" is a paired item with a different initial distiller and barley production area.
Only imported barley malt is used, which is the exact opposite of "Pot Still K Pure Japanese Barley First Edition" which uses 100% Japanese barley malt. In addition to Scottish peated malt, it combines German beer (pilsner) malt.Barley, which has a strong flavor, is made more powerful by the wood-fired direct-fire distiller W. It is a very rare manufacturing method in the world, where thinned wood cut from the Oku Shizuoka forest is used as a heat source and distilled at a high temperature of 800 degrees Celsius. It is an item that pursues a new Shizuoka style, with a gentle mouth opening and a gradually strong peaty feel.
*Although this product uses imported ingredients, it is a "Japanese single malt whiskey" that meets the Japanese whiskey standards set by the Japan Brewers Association.
