A single malt created by blending two pot stills, nicknamed W and K. Smooth and balanced.
At Shizuoka Distillery, two pot stills, nicknamed W and K, produce distinct and unique spirits. United S is a Single Malt created by blending both of these spirits. Its smooth and balanced flavor can be likened to a sphere. The K, with its steam heating, forms the upper half of the sphere with its fruity aroma and light taste, while the W, heated by direct wood fire, provides a heavy taste and long finish, supporting the lower half of the sphere.
Located halfway between Tokyo and Nagoya, Shizuoka is reportedly the only whisky distillery in the world solely burning timber to heat a wash still during distillation. The ingredients in United S consist of Japanese malted barley as the core, combined with Scottish non-peated malt, peated malt, and malt for beer. The barrels used are primarily first-fill bourbon barrels, with wine barrels also utilized. Please enjoy Single Malt S, the culmination of Shizuoka Distillery's expertise.
