Collector's Tasting Card

Rurouni Kenshin 13-Year Single Malt

COMPASSIONATE WANDERER WITH RETAINED EDGE
Cask Lineage: Japanese Mizunara & Sherry Cask Crossover • Aged: 13 Years • ABV: 48.0% Non-Chill Filtered
Nose & Initial Palate
Predominantly sweet and gentle, layered with fragrant grated Fuji apple, ripe Japanese plum, and delicate golden malt sweetness reminiscent of Kenshin's vow to protect life.
Heart & Mid-Palate Body
Warm honeycomb and subtle toasted sandalwood from Mizunara wood, framing a calm and reflective demeanor while retaining an iron-forged backbone.
Finish & Lingering Afterglow
A warming ginger, cracked peppercorn, and faint chili finish that stirs quietly on the back palate—an unmistakable whisper of the deadly Hitokiri Battosai.
RATIO: 65% SWEET / 35% SPICE STATUS: BALANCED MATURITY
