Akashi White Oak Akashi Blue Japanese Blended Whisky 700ml

A blended whisky reserved in Japanese Shochu cask (American Oak) around 5 years, aged in bourbon cask before finishing in sherry casks for 2 years.

White Oak Akashi was founded in 1888 on the site of Eigashima in the city of Akashi. White Oak distillery was the first in Japan to obtain the license of distilled spirits in 1919 and according to legend would consequently be the first to distill whisky. Production remained traditional and reserved for the Japanese market until 1984 with the construction of a new distillery specially dedicated to the distillation of whisky. Located near the sea, and the city of Kobe, the distillery is enjoying a mild and stable climate. Today White Oak produces single malt in small quantities, but increasing quality.
