Akashi Blue Label Blended Whisky: A Fusion of Tradition and Innovation
The Art of Craftsmanship
Indulge in the world of Akashi Blue Label Blended Whisky, a true masterpiece crafted by the hands of a Toji, a grand-master in the art of sake making. This distinguished approach sets Akashi whisky apart, infusing traditional sake-making methodologies into the whisky production process. The result is a unique and unparalleled spirit that stands out in the global whisky landscape.
Small Pot, Big Impact
Akashi takes pride in using a smaller distilled pot compared to both Scottish and other Japanese distilleries. This deliberate choice reduces the levels of fusel alcohol, leading to a whisky that doesn’t require extensive aging. The new make is remarkably smooth and delicate, showcasing the precision and expertise embedded in every drop.
Aged to Perfection
Akashi Blue Label undergoes a meticulous aging process, spending two years in American White Oak Shochu casks. To elevate its complexity, the whisky is then artfully finished in Sherry casks and Bourbon casks. This dual maturation imparts distinct characteristics, creating a symphony of flavors that dance on the palate.
Tasting the Essence
