• Region: New Zealand
• Distillery: Pōkeno
• Age: NAS
• ABV: 55.8%
• Size: 700 ml

Nestled in a warm, misty valley surrounded by volcanic hills, the Pōkeno Distillery benefits from pure natural spring water and high-quality barley sourced from three family-owned farms in New Zealand's fertile South Island. This unique environment, combined with slow fermentation, meticulous distillation, and careful maturation in first fill casks, creates an exceptional whisky.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: An enticing aroma of citrus intertwined with rich, dark chocolate and dried fruit.
• Palate: A harmonious blend of flavors including black forest gâteau, complemented by the deep, luscious notes from the PX cask.
• Finish: A deep and lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression.

This whisky represents a double wood approach, featuring a vatting of single malts fully matured in first fill bourbon barrels and PX Sherry Hogsheads. Following this, the whiskies undergo a marrying period in a PX hogshead for several months, allowing the flavors to integrate beautifully.

Bottled exclusively for MIZUNARA, this rich and complex whisky is a true testament to the craftsmanship of Pōkeno Distillery, perfect for those seeking a unique and luxurious drinking experience.
