The second release of "K", follows Shizuoka Distillery's first release "Prologue K".
This is a special whiskey that uses only distiller K and uses 100% Japanese malted barley. Not only is it a single malt whiskey (only whiskey from a single distillery), but it is also composed entirely of whiskies from a single initial distiller. Therefore, it is described as "single-wash still whiskey". (This expression is unique to Shizuoka Distillery)
The delicate and luscious taste of Japanese barley is further elegantly polished by the distiller "K". This taste is a taste only Shizuoka Distillery can produce.The product name is “Pot Still K” because it is the successor to Prologue K and represents that it is made from undiluted whiskey from a single initial distiller. It also bears the words “pure Japanese barley,” which uses 100% Japanese malted barley, and “first edition,” which indicates the first edition.
