So, to pay tribute to this remarkable piece of Whisky history, and to the apple of Masataka's eye, Scottish wife Jessie Roberts "Rita" Cowanthe and their 100th anniversary, two apple brandy barrel-finished Whiskies were released.
This expression is aged in various casks including new American Oak and Sherry casks, before getting the apple Brandy cask finishing, giving it the sweetness from the apples that highlights the pear and gentle peaty notes.
