Premium Kakubin Launch


Suntory announces the launch date of "The Premium Kakubin". New to the whisky giant's line-up, the "luxury whisky within reach" - a concept the big guns of the industry have given this special blend - will appear across the country Tuesday, May 21. This reasonably tasty treat that uses malt from wine and sherry casks will retail at 2,000 yen respectively with an ABV of 43%. It appears Whisky Shop W. will have this available for tasting earlier than the official release date.

  1. Yum, that's a "must try", I guess!

  2. Well worth a try, Pierre. I was very surprised when sampling it at Whisky Live this year. Smooth, with a good flavour profile. I will be having a bottle of this in my cabinet also. A good blend between malts.

  3. Highballs without the hangover Clint?

  4. Quite possibly, Brian. Although a smooth and tasty blend I dare say if you consumed three bottles of this - as a mixer - highballs - you'd still feel rough the next day.
