Akashi Single Malt Whiskey - 50 cl

The Eigashima Distillery is situated by the inland sea in a small fishing village. The Distillery, better known as “White Oak”, only produces whisky one month in the year. After distillation all whiskies are aged in ex bourbon, ex sherry and re-charred casks that previously held shochu. Red and white wine casks from Eigashima’s winery in Yamanashi are used mainly for finishing. The distillery produces two ranges: Akashi and Tokinoka. Akashi Single Malt is produced in limited quantities, exclusively made from malted barley, and aged for 3 years, in Bourbon casks. It is neither chill filtered nor coloured. The nose has caramel, plums and golden syrup. Dried fruit on the palate with a long nutty finish.
