The whisky is built predominantly around peated malt distillates matured in re-charred ex-shochu casks and Bourbon barrels, with selected whiskies from additional cask types incorporated into the final vatting. Kanosuke's use of three different pot stills allows the distillery to create spirit with varied weight and character before maturation and blending. The resulting whisky balances juicy fruit and honeyed sweetness with savoury smoke and a subtle maritime quality influenced by maturation near the coast of Fukiagehama. Bottled at 48% ABV, it retains the richness and elegant texture associated with Kanosuke's flagship single malt style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than pursuing an intensely medicinal or heavily smoky profile, Kanosuke presents the peat with softness and integration. Blackcurrant, caramel and honeyed notes introduce the whisky before more savoury elements of bread, delicate dashi and smoke begin to emerge. The palate moves toward quince, pear and kumquat, accompanied by smoked bacon, gentle salinity and a nutty, roasted quality. Re-charred ex-shochu casks contribute an important link to the distillery's Japanese shochu heritage, while Bourbon barrels help reinforce fruit, sweetness and oak structure. The finish carries quince and citrus peel with lingering fruit, gentle bitterness and restrained smoke, giving this peated expression an unusually mellow and refined character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fruity, honeyed and gently savoury\u003cbr\u003eBlackcurrant, caramel, honey butter and fresh baguette with a delicate savoury dashi note and softly emerging smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Juicy, smoky and subtly saline\u003cbr\u003eQuince candy, ripe pear and kumquat compote layered with smoked bacon, salt candy and gently roasted soybean notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long, fruity and softly bitter\u003cbr\u003eLingering quince with kumquat peel, restrained citrus bitterness, gentle salinity and mellow peat smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2025 San Francisco World Spirits Competition — Double Gold\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrand - Kanosuke\u003cbr\u003eStyle - Single Malt Whisky\u003cbr\u003eCountry - Japan\u003cbr\u003eRegion - Kagoshima\u003cbr\u003eABV - 48%\u003cbr\u003eSize - 700ml\u003cbr\u003eCask Strength - No\u003cbr\u003ePeat Level - Lightly Peated\u003cbr\u003eMash Bill Type - Malted\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kanosuke Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44310492807255,"sku":"KANO-PEAT","price":229.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/KanosukePeatedSingleMaltJapaneseWhisky700ml.webp?v=1789707734","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/kanosuke-peated-single-malt-japanese-whisky-700ml","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
