Akashi White Oak Sake Cask Aged 3 Years Japanese Single Malt Whisky (500ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 50% Age: 3 Years Old Country: Japan
Another superb release from this small Japanese distillery. Given the history of this distillery it’s not a surprise that they decided to mature some of their spirit in ex-Sake barrels. We are not sure this has ever been achieved or tried before but we know the outcome is very special indeed.
