Underlying sweetness of vanilla and shortbread biscuit, with a whisper of distant campfire smoke and a mineral earthiness.\u003c\/p\u003e         \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e The palate arrives with a surprising richness, a vibrant interplay of sweet and savory. Initial burst of honey and malted milk, followed by a crisp orchard fruit character (pear, unripe apricot). Mid-palate reveals toasted nuts, a touch of white pepper spice, and a delicate herbal note reminiscent of spearmint or dill. The Hogshead influence introduces a subtle oak structure, not overpowering, but lending depth and a pleasant dryness.\u003c\/p\u003e         \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e A clean, lingering finish that is remarkably well-balanced. Sweet malt and gentle spice slowly fade, leaving behind a delightful aftertaste of baked apple, light caramel, and a whisper of saline minerality that invites another sip. The finish is medium-long, elegant, and exceptionally clean.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reserve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52013897974081,"sku":"BOURBON-1782693040451","price":1999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/7223\/6097\/files\/Ichiro_s_Malt_Chichibu_Distillery_Single_Malt_Japanese_Whisky_124.2_Proof-1_5a2fb5fa-6a82-47c2-86a9-ae07ea02be6f.jpg?v=1784877714","url":"https:\/\/heritagereserves.com\/products\/ichiros-malt-chichibu-distillery-single-malt-japanese-whisky-124-2-proof","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
