product Details

Shizuoka Contact S

Owned by Gaia Flow and founded by Taiko Nakamura, the Shizuoka distillery begin producing whisky in October 2016. The distillery is located on the banks of the Nakakouchi River in the Tamagawa District of Oku-Shizu close to Japan’s iconic Mount Fuji. The very modern looking building was designed by American Derek Buston who lives locally in the area. Perhaps the facilities main claim-to-fame is its small wash still which was once used at Japan’s legendary and much missed Karuizawa distillery. The first single malt was released in 2020 and was titled Prologue K.

Contact S was released in late 2021 and has been aged for 3 years in ex-Bourbon casks.
