Chivas Mizunara is a perfect marriage of Scottish craft with Japanese tradition, creating a truly worldly blend. A wonderfully indulgent whisky with a touch of spice.

Inspired by the Japanese discernment and art integrated with the world of whisky, Master Blender Sandy Hyslop traveled to Japan to seek out the best Mizunara oak casks. Following visits to a Japanese cooperage and meeting with the Master Cooper, they together agreed the exact specification of the casks and built a relationship that stands strong today.

The porous nature of Mizunara oak results in a greater influence of flavour from the cask, meaning a wonderfully indulgent effect on our classic house blended Scotch whisky. The casks bring a range of gentle aromatic flavours to the blend, finished with a touch of spice. With a distinctive flavour that leaves a trace of hazelnut, Chivas Mizunara is a truly unique blend.

Nose: Rich and fruity, presenting aromas of pear and orange.

Palate: Smooth and rich with honey sweetness and a trace of hazelnut.

Finish: Distinctive and spicy.
