Close to the Seto Inland Sea, the White Oak distillery benefits from a maritime climate whose mildness contributes to the development of the very particular aromatic profile of this single malt. Made from lightly peated malted barley, it is then aged in sherry casks. Unchill-filtered, Akashi Single Malt retains its rich, round texture and high alcohol content.
Aged for 3 years in Bourbon casks, its nose reveals notes of chamomile, sherry and malt. On the palate, the pastry aromas of butter and vanilla remain present until the soft and elegant finish which ends on woody notes.
This Akashi Single Malt, will seduce the novices as well as the amateurs of Japanese whisky tempted by the discovery of small productions having their own know-how.
