Islay Mist 8 Year Old 1970s

Islay Mist was originally created on Islay in 1922 to celebrate the 21st birthday of Lord Margadale, the theory was that the intensity of the Islay malts might be too much for all the guests to handle. So, at the time some Speyside whisky and a grain whisky were blended with some Islay malts to create Islay Mist.

Islay Mist has always been incredibly popular, we are excited to offer a great example of this blend from circa 1970's.

Ichiro's Malt Mizunara Wood Reserve

Rumored to be a vatting of the closed Japanese distillery of Hanyu with that of the relatively young distillery of Chichibu, where this whisky was matured, married and bottled.

The whiskies were matured in Mizunara Oak casks (Japanese Oak). 

Given that this was first released in 2010 and and Hanyu has become thinner on the ground since, we can only assume the Hanyu content has or will eventually be removed.

When that will happen or if it has already happened is unclear.
