Shinobu Pure Malt Japanese Whisky Review and tasting
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- SHINOBU JAPANESE whisky Niigata is known in Japan for its “Three White” treasures, i.e. snow, rice and sake, and a naturally blessed environment for pure water source. Shinobu means “Forbearance” in Japanese as it is how the distiller’s spirit should be when making quality whisky.
Shinobu Whisky is hand crafted by the distiller, Mr. Usami. He carefully selects whisky from around the world and first matures this in ex-Sherry and ex-Bourbon casks. It is then finishing in precious Japanese Mizunara oak and further maturing of the spirit takes place in Japan. The result is a unique fusion of flavours and dynamic explosion in palate yet so smooth and easy to drink. All natural with no colouring.
Mizunara is an expensive oak which is hard to craft into barrels, but imparts incredible flavour on the spirit of Shinobu. This pure malt has been maturing for no less than 10 years which has now allowed the spirit to take on some very inspiring characteristics.
One of the best value Japanese whiskies going around today, bottled at 43% abv

Whisky/Whiskey Reviews are filmed on location at Death and Taxes Brisbane, Australia.
I found a bottle in Hokkaido recently that is 10 years, pure malt (not blended..?) Koshi-no Shinobu. Note the 'Koshi-no' part. Is it the same as the 10 years Shinobu that doesn't say 'Koshi-no' on the label?
What's the difference?
Thank you! It was a great video with a lot of info. Just got the whisky and I loved it.
im looking to buy one, but i cannot decide between the blended and pure malt, its a 10% price difference, is it worth the extra?
Definitely worth the extra 10% in my opinion. Both are great though
@@TheWhiskyDiaries i already ordered the blended and it has arrived, maybe ill try the pure malt later, thanks for the reply!
So the thumbnail shows the 15 year but you said 10 year in the video.... if you do have the 15 year can you make another video?
Funny you mention it, shooting the 15 year tomorrow! had to wait for delivery 🥃
