The "single malt Komagatake IPA Cask Finish" is a single malt whisky finished in empty barrels that previously held India Pale Ale (IPA), a medium-colored beer brewed with plenty of hops at the Southern Shinshu Beer Komagatake Brewery. It has a light and refreshing citrus aroma, a clear sweetness reminiscent of grapefruit and orange, and a sharp bitter finish derived from the IPA. It pairs exceptionally well with highballs.
