Akashi The Colors of Four Seasons

Presenting the exquisite Akashi 2015 Single Cask #61191, a true representation of The Colors of Four Seasons. Akashi is the distinguished name given to the single malt whisky produced at the esteemed Eigashima distillery, often referred to as the White Oak distillery, known for its remarkable blends. Given the high demand for White Oak whisky, much of the Eigashima single malt is allocated for its production, making Akashi a rare and sought-after gem among whisky enthusiasts.

This particular release is a single cask expression distilled in April 2015 and bottled in July 2020, meticulously bottled at cask strength to preserve its intense and unadulterated flavors.

Following this initial maturation, the spirit was then transferred to a Yamanashi White Wine cask #5173 for an additional 2 years. This unique cask type lends its influence to the whisky, imparting captivating notes from the white wine that complement and enhance the existing flavors.

The name "The Colors of Four Seasons" suggests that this exceptional Akashi single cask bottling embodies the essence of the changing seasons, offering a delightful and harmonious symphony of flavors that evolve and transform with each sip.
