THE PERFECT CIRCLE WHISKY Drawing enso (the Japanese word for circle) is a disciplined, creative practice of Japanese ink painting. Once the enso is drawn, one does not change it. It evidences the character of its creator and the context of its creation in a brief, continuous period of time. Traditionally, the circle is drawn with only one brushstroke and is one of the most common subjects in Japanese calligraphy. According to Zen philosophy, when the circle is closed, it represents perfection.
