HONG KONG, CHINA. Today’s selection of images is courtesy of Global Drinks Managing Director Harry Kartasis, who is celebrating the first travel retail listing of premium Japanese whisky brand Misaka.
The images are from Avolta’s Hong Kong Duty Free Store at West Kowloon Railway Station in Hong Kong.
As reported, the drinks company launched Misaka last week. The brand makes its debut at the TFWA Asia Pacific show in Singapore this week.
Misaka collection comprises seven “exceptional” whiskies that combine fine natural ingredients and time-honoured distillation techniques from Scotland and Japan.
The range includes a 3-5 Year Old pure malt; a 12 Year Old pure malt finished in PX Sherry Oloroso casks; and a 12 Year Old pure malt finished in rare Hokkaido Mizunara (Japanese oak) casks.
They are complemented by several 15, 18, and 21 Year Old blended and pure malt expressions also finished in prized Mizunara oak.
Global Drinks said it is confident the Misaka range will be popular with global consumers seeking exceptional quality and provenance in their whisky. ✈
