From the land of the rising sun to us, we present to you a journey through Japan’s whisky landscape, for distiller Kanosuke’s arrival in Australia.

A rising star in the Japanese whisky world, the Kagoshima-based Kanosuke Distillery originally began as a shochu distillery known as Komasa Jyozo. The family-run business produced shochu for over 130 years, before expanding into creating distinct, high-quality single malt whiskies.

Using pot stills, a variety of cask types, seasonal maturation and a philosophy of “making whisky in tune with nature”, Kanosuke Distillery’s whiskies reflect both the spirit of tradition and discovery, with a rich complex flavour profile, subtle sweetness and a distinctive smoky character.

Join us for an evening of five expressions of Japanese whisky, paired with a shared style menu.
