Introducing the White Oak Akashi Madeira Cask Finish, a distinguished 4-year-old single malt whisky from the esteemed White Oak distillery in Hyogo. As a cherished part of the Akashi range, this expression is a testament to the distillery's dedication to crafting exceptional spirits. This particular whisky has undergone a meticulous maturation process, spending three years in American oak barrels followed by a final year in Madeira barrels.

The choice of Madeira casks for the final year of maturation imbues this whisky with a unique and intricate flavor profile. Madeira, a fortified wine from the Portuguese island of Madeira, is celebrated for its rich, complex, and nuanced taste. The influence of these casks on the Akashi single malt is striking, introducing layers of sweetness, fruitiness, and a subtle yet distinctive spiciness. This Madeira cask finish not only complements but also beautifully enhances the whisky's original character, offering a harmonious interplay of flavors.

Adhering to White Oak's philosophy, this whisky is presented in its most natural form - free from chill filtration and artificial colorings. This approach ensures that the essence of the whisky, enriched by the Madeira cask influence, is experienced in its purest and most authentic state.

Bottled at 50% ABV, the White Oak Akashi Madeira Cask Finish strikes a perfect balance between intensity and approachability. It offers a full-bodied and robust experience, ideal for those who seek depth and richness in their whisky.

This release is not only a rare gem in terms of its flavor profile but also in its availability. With only 480 bottles produced, it represents an exclusive offering, initially available solely at the Modern Malt Whiskys Market. This limited production adds to the allure and desirability of the whisky, making each bottle a prized possession for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

The White Oak Akashi Madeira Cask Finish is more than a whisky; it's a celebration of the fusion of traditional whisky-making and innovative cask finishing. It invites connoisseurs and curious drinkers alike to explore a unique and exquisite expression of single malt, showcasing the artistry and craftsmanship of the White Oak distillery.
