Immerse yourself in the sophisticated world of Japanese whisky with the White Oak Blue Label Akashi. Produced by the renowned Eigashima Shuzo distillery, this world blended whisky offers a unique journey through its meticulous aging process. Initially matured in American white oak shochu casks for five years, it is then finished in a curated mix of sherry and bourbon casks for an additional two years, creating a well-rounded and layered flavor profile. On the nose, you will be greeted by enticing aromas of orange peel, honey, baking spices, and a touch of white pepper. The palate reveals a harmonious blend of cinnamon, pepper, orange, lemon, smoke, and ginger spice, further enriched by notes of vanilla, caramel, salt, and grains. This sophisticated expression reflects the illustrious heritage of the White Oak distillery, which began producing whisky in 1984 but has been a stalwart in Japan's spirit industry since 1919. With a balanced and nuanced flavor profile, the White Oak Blue Label Akashi is a testament to the distillery's innovative approach and dedication to quality.
