White Oak Akashi Blended Whisky
A Japanese blended whisky that has been the subject of some controversy. The bottling for the home market in Japan is made with malt whisky and molasses spirit, which would not be classed as 'whisky' in the EU. This export version, however, is made from malt and grain whiskies.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Buttered hot cross buns, chocolate peanuts, lemongrass and a light hint of spicy rye grain.
Palate
Cherry bakewells and walnut loaf. Sweet cereals with a dusting of nutmeg and black pepper.
Finish
Medium length. Quite sweet with dried apricot and a touch of oatcake.
