This single malt from Akashi is made from 100% Scottish barley, aged in bourbon and sherry casks for 3 years. Producing a whisky with a powerful nose of vanilla and smoke. The palate is round and long with notes of leather and red apples.

The White Oak distillery was the first in Japan to be granted an official license to distill whisky in 1919. They import all their barley from Scotland and have become masters of emulating the Scottish style.
