The Akkeshi Taisho is an exquisite blended whisky from the renowned Akkeshi Distillery, located in Japan. This premium release was bottled in 2022 and is part of the innovative 24 Solar Term Series, paying homage to the traditional Asian calendar that divides the year into 24 solar seasons. As the 12th release in this series, The Akkeshi Taisho has been masterfully crafted using methods akin to those employed by Islay distilleries and features equipment from the esteemed Forsyth's. This whisky showcases an artful blend of grain and malt, matured in a combination of Quercus Serrata (Japanese oak) and ex-bourbon casks. Bottled at a robust 48% ABV and presented in a 700ml format, The Akkeshi Taisho is a limited edition offering that exemplifies the high-quality production of Japanese whisky. The distillation and aging process, carried out without chill-filtration or added color, results in a whisky with a rich, charming profile characterized by floral and fruity notes, making it an ideal choice for summer enjoyment. On the nose, The Akkeshi Taisho reveals a complex aroma of minerality, citrus, herbs, smoke, and florals. The palate unfolds with intriguing flavors of cocoa, smoke, herbs, pomegranate, grapefruit, citrus fruits, salt, florals, and chocolate. This well-rounded whisky not only showcases the craftsmanship and quality of Japanese whisky but also competes admirably with traditional Scotch whiskies from Scotland and Irish whiskeys from Ireland.
