Description
Fuji Single Blended is the embodiment of Fuji Gotemba’s commitment to creating unique Whisky. Single Blended is a blend of malt and three different types of grain whisky. Produced at the one site Fuji Gotemba. Master Blender, Jota Tanaka uses a combination corn, rye and malted barley distilled across doubler, column, kettle and pot stills. This creates flavor profiles similar to Scotch, American and Canadian style whiskies.Unlike most other distilleries the entire production process from massing to bottling happens at Fuji’s distillery. The water in this whiskey comes from snowmelt run-off from Mount Fuji, which takes about 50 years to cycle. A proprietary yeast is used for fermenting the various grains over a 72 hour fermentation period.
Three distillation formats are employed: column (lighter style), batch kettle (medium style) and pot still (heavy style). The whiskey is aged in medium to high char ex bourbon barrels, refill and virgin oak. It is non–chill filtered and bottled at 46% ABV.

Tasting Notes
Smooth mouthfeel with multi-layered flavours of poached pear, orange marmalade, raspberry jam, rye spice, and bitter chocolate. Water brings out red berries and a delicate spiciness reminiscent of rye bread and cinnamon. Mellow with gentle sweetness and pleasant spiciness, smooth with a medium length finish and a hint of exotic incense.Product Details
