Experience the fourth chapter of KANOSUKE's exclusive "Artist Edition" series, a profound exploration of the Japanese Five Elements philosophy (Godai). 

"Artist Edition #004", draws inspiration from “Metal (Gon)” and KANOSUKE's signature three pot stills to create a complex vatting of diverse unpeated spirits. At its core lies a lush, fruity spirit from Kanosuke's Spirits Still 2 (SS2), elevated by the rare depth of triple-distilled bourbon barrel spirit. The journey culminates in a unique finish within Islay casks, matured under the Kagoshima sun in Hioki. This fusion evokes a layered, lingering finish—a dialogue between the sea breezes of Islay and Hioki.

The "Artist Edition" series is inspired by the "Five Elements Theory" (wood, fire, earth, metal, water), a concept deeply rooted in Japanese culture. Various artists have been invited in the past to create original labels based on these five elements.

The beautiful brush gold label is designed by Japanese artist Keiko Yuasa, whose delicate brushwork captures the serene essence of "Metal (Gon)."
