As the whisky develops, fragrant Mizunara oak introduces delicate sweet spices and exotic sandalwood notes, effortlessly bridging the powerful smoky opening with the softer sweetness that follows. The Oloroso sherry casks add body, richness and a luxurious textural depth, while a subtle influence from Cognac casks rounds the profile beautifully, harmonising the finish with remarkable finesse. Layers of creamy vanilla, toffee, orchard fruits and gentle oak intertwine with maritime smoke, peppery spice and lingering sweet peat, culminating in a refined, balanced finish that continues to evolve long after the final sip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shindo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54192055910710,"sku":null,"price":249.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/2558\/3414\/files\/de0d32684a0684c7729146aeebd90b9b.jpg?v=1784202704","url":"https:\/\/hiliquor.com.au\/products\/shindo-experimental-for-cores-02-single-malt-japanese-whisky","provider":"Hi_liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
