Chivas Regal Mizunara Cask Scotch Pine porch-pounding Cinsault from the giftedReleased in October 2014, Chivas Regal Mizunara is a limited edition blended Scotch. Master Distiller Colin Scott was inspired to create this expression after a trip to Japan where he picked up a few whisky making techniques. It's made with a blend of Scottish grain and malt whiskies, each aged at least 12 years. Part of the blend is aged in casks made from Mizunara (aka Japanese oak).
