A limited release matured in rare wood native to Hokkaidō, the northernmost prefecture in Japan.

For ten years, classic first-fill sherry and refill casks laid the foundation. Then, for six long years, Mizunara Oak did its quiet work – infusing the spirit with whispers of sandalwood, soft vanilla, and spring blossom.

Matured in the Highlands, shaped by Japanese oak, and bottled at 53.4% ABV, this 16 Year Old release is the third in our Oak Masters’Series, a celebration of the world’s finest oaks. With just 3,195 bottles available worldwide.

Awarded Double Gold at the International Spirits Challenge 2025.
