Nose
Sweetness of red ripe apple, then soy sauce. Hint of vanilla, peach. Overall intensity of fragrance is a bit low for me.
Palate
Bit watery texture, light-colored honey, apple jam, then weak tannin. After comes umami from soy sauce, weak spice, sweetness of grains.
Finish
Short to medium, bit dry, soy sauce, grain sweetness.
Overall Notes
Got a bottle from duty free shop at Fukuoka airport. Kanosuke's single cask bottlings, and annual releases are quite impressive for me, but after all this official release is still quite drinkable, and adequate to get a clue of Kanosuke's characteristics.
