Akashi White Oak Aged 5 Years Single Cask #61191 Japanese Single Malt Whisky (700ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 53% Age: 5 Years Old Country: Japan
Eigashima Shuzo was founded in 1888 in Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture, and first acquired a whisky-making license in 1919. The White Oak distillery was established in 1984. The stills are only in operation for two months every year and so their production is very small. Most of their whisky goes into blends, however a very limited number of single malts do come on the market under the titular Akashi brand. This five year-old single malt has been matured for three years in virgin American oak ‘Ariake’ casks and two years in Eigashima Winery white-wine casks. 500ml bottling at 53% abv only 450 bottles of this whisky were produced.
Tasting Notes
Nose: elegantly floral with butter caramel, honey and sweet vanilla.
