Introducing the Akashi Flying Tiger, a truly exceptional and limited-edition single cask Japanese whisky. This release is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of Akashi, as well as the collaborative efforts between renowned French-Chinese artist Hu Yu and the distillery.

With only 222 bottles produced, this expression stands as a rarity among whisky collectors. It holds the distinction of being the first single cask Japanese whisky exclusively released for the Taiwan retail market, making it a sought-after treasure for whisky enthusiasts in the region.

Distilled in 2016, this spirit embarked on a transformative journey within a 1st fill bourbon barrel, where it patiently matured until its bottling in 2019. This maturation process allowed the whisky to develop a unique and complex flavor profile, showcasing the harmonious interplay between the spirit and the carefully selected cask.

The Akashi Flying Tiger is more than just a whisky; it is a work of art. The label and box designs were masterfully crafted by the talented French-Chinese artist, Hu Yu. The label features an awe-inspiring depiction of The Flying Tiger—a mythical creature said to possess wings adorned with flames, growing swords as feathers. It symbolizes power, speed, and the unyielding pursuit of excellence.

As you savor this exceptional whisky, anticipate a sensory journey unlike any other. The Akashi Flying Tiger offers a symphony of flavors, unveiling layers of vanilla, caramel, and gentle spices. The result is a smooth and complex whisky that captivates the palate with its depth and character.

Owning a bottle of the Akashi Flying Tiger represents an opportunity to appreciate the convergence of exceptional whisky, artistry, and cultural collaboration. Secure your place among the fortunate few who can experience the magnificence of this limited-edition release and cherish the craftsmanship embodied by both Akashi and Hu Yu.
