Hiroshima is blessed with a natural environment comprising both seaside and mountainous areas. The Sakurao warehouse on the sea side has a large temperature difference between summer and winter, warm wind blowing from the Seto Inland Sea and cool wind coming down from the mountains. This causes aging to occur rapidly. In addition, a variety of barrels are used to age a wide variety of raw spirits. Of the carefully selected SHERRY CASK, Stillman selected only the SPANISH OAK that caught his eye. Single Malt Japanese Whisky Sakurao SPANISH OAK STILLMAN’S SELECTION will release at a limited quantity.

《About STILLMAN’S SELECTION》

Hiroshima is blessed with a natural environment comprising both seaside and mountainous areas. The Sakurao warehouse, where the gentle sea breezes of the Seto Inland Sea reach, and the Togouchi warehouse, nestled in the heart of the Chugoku Mountains surrounded by forests and clear streams. The difference in environment between these two warehouses allows us to produce a wide variety of whiskies.
