Shinju 8 Years Old Japanese Whisky 40% vol. 0.7 l is a remarkable whisky from Japan, affectionately known as ‘the Pearl of Japan’. The name and history of this whisky are inspired by a beautiful legend: it is said that pearls were formed from the tears of angels, a story that reflects the elegance and noble character of this whisky. As a tribute to Japan’s highest and most sacred mountain, Mount Fuji, which stands at 3,776.24 metres, the crystal-clear water of Mount Fuji is used in the production of Shinju whisky. This water is renowned for its purity and lends the whisky a particularly soft and smooth texture.

Shinju 8 Years Old Whisky is matured for eight years in carefully selected oak casks, which lends it a complex and harmonious depth of flavour. The oak cask maturation brings out delicate aromas of vanilla, honey and wood, which blend perfectly with the whisky’s fresh, floral and fruity notes. Shinju Whisky offers a balanced and refined drinking experience that transports both whisky connoisseurs and newcomers alike into the world of Japanese whiskies.
