Akashi Ariake Virgin Cask – Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish

From the Akashi distillery, nestled in the heart of Japan, comes a single malt matured with a unique coastal influence. This expression begins its life in virgin American oak before a finishing period in carefully selected Oloroso sherry casks, imparting rich dried fruit and spice notes. Expect a complex palate of dark chocolate, orange peel, and a subtle maritime salinity, reflective of its seaside location. The Akashi Ariake delivers a smooth, warming finish – a testament to Japanese whisky-making artistry.
