Whisky Kensei Pure Malt 3 Y.O.

Kensei Pure Malt 3 Years epitomizes the evolution of skill and technology in Japanese whisky production, catapulting it to unparalleled distinction in quality and sensory delight in a very short time. Despite its limited maturation, this whiskey has rested patiently in oak barrels before bottling.

Some argue that the climate, intertwined with the Japanese way of life, gestate the distinctive profile of Japanese elixirs. The resulting spirits are irresistibly appealing to balanced, gentle and sophisticated palates, the fruit of fermentation and distillation processes.

Kensei perfectly embodies these parameters by blending select Japanese whiskies aged in small oak barrels in a picturesque village between Kanagawa and the majestic Nagano Mountains.

Straw-colored and vibrant, this whisky opens with a floral burst and aromas of sweet cereals, vanilla, honey, and delicate notes of apple, peach, and oak. The palate delivers bold intensity with a touch of smoke, layered with banana, ripe fruit, apple, spices, and herbal nuances. The finish lingers with vanilla, summer fruits, lemongrass, and a gentle oak presence.

The mild texture of Kensei Whisky, in this case Pure Malt, goes down well with a little bit of Camembert.

Kiyokawa is an independent distillery, which name is translated from Japanese as "pure river". The company's products are exclusively kraft. As Kensei samurai strive for excellence in martial arts, Kiyowaka created Kensei, the perfect blended whisky.
