Product Description
Two legendary creators behind some of the world's most revered whiskies have come together to bring you something special. Expertly distilled by seventh-generation master distiller Fred Noe and then refined by world-renowned chief blender Shinji Fukuyo, Legent is a marriage of east and west . It's a celebration of the craftsmanship of the Kentucky Bourbon balanced with the artistry of Japanese blending. From rich aromas of mature oak and lingering spice to the flavors of dried fruits pulled from wine and sherry casks, every sip of Legent is worth savoring and sharing.

What critics and judges wrote
Distiller · Jake Emen
The nose brightly showcases the wine influence, fruity and jammy with grapes and red wine. The palate is where the rich, chewy bourbon character shines through, with caramel, crème brûlée, and butterscotch.

Whisky Advocate · Susannah Skiver Barton · 2019
Lovely grain aromas, especially of porridge … Nuttier grain on the palate, which is led by red fruit, caramel, and lively spices: black pepper, cinnamon, allspice, candied ginger.

IWSC judges · Silver · 2022
Delicate vegetal tones to the nose lead onto fruit and sandalwood on front palate, orange, vanilla and cherry develop to a finish of oak and dry richness.

Complex with toasty dark coffee, chocolate and burnished apple notes. Bold and fulsome with surprising elements of curaçao and hints of green grass. Big style with bags of interest.
Intensely aromatic with notes of nuts and creamy toffee. The palate is wonderfully spicy with a long and layered finish.
