This single malt is the first to be distilled entirely in Takaoka Copperware's new traditional cast-iron ‘ZEMON’ stills, which, thanks to a unique combination of copper and tin, give the whisky a remarkable smoothness and sophistication. Made from highly peated malted barley (50 ppm), then carefully aged in bourbon casks, Saburomaru II ‘The High Priestess’ is neither coloured nor chill-filtered, preserving all the authenticity of its aromas and range of flavours.
This third edition of the Saburomaru single malt series perfectly embodies the creativity, innocence, truth and mystery associated with the tarot card ‘The High Priestess’. For this special bottle, a paper cut-out depicting ‘The High Priestess’ has been created by paper-cut artist Yukie Kano, adding a unique artistic dimension to the label.
