AKKESHI Blended Whisky Daikan 48%

€199.00 VAT included

Daikan Blended Whisky is the 6th whiskey in the "24 seasons series" produced by the talented Japanese distillery Akkeshi. It is inspired by the 24 solar seasons of the ancient Asian calendar. Daikan refers to the coldest period of winter, and to a unique natural phenomenon east of Hokkaido called Kearashi, misty vapors that form on the sea. It is an assemblage of Akkeshi single malts matured in Querçus serrata casks, sherry, bourbon and wines with imported grain whisky. A very beautiful harmony is created between the sweetness of oranges, strawberries and bitter lemon. A superb expression produced by this distillery.

Very limited series.

Quantity
