Single malt Japanese whisky from the Akashi range, produced by White Oak in Hyogo, just west of Kobe. This non-age-statement release ought to prove rather interesting for whisky adventurers looking to try something new.
Buttered hot cross buns, chocolate peanuts, lemongrass and a light hint of spicy rye grain.
Cherry bakewells and walnut loaf. Sweet cereals with a dusting of nutmeg and black pepper.
Medium length. Quite sweet with dried apricot and a touch of oatcake.

Excellent drop, typical buttery creamy light Japanese whisky. Laphroig drinkers won’t enjoy. *the blended version for the Japanese market contained molasses spirit, the export version didn’t. This single malt doesn’t contain molasses.
Pretty great stuff. Gentle start and mineral tones lead into a nasal smack with burnt/toasted vanilla. Cereal taste in the middle and and a finish of smooth oak. Great!
Whilst it doesn't particularly stand out; this is a very welcoming & smooth, oaky whisky. Rich oak & cereals aroma. Clean, light & fresh on the tongue with a citrus (lime?) and sweet tone. Warm spice gradually builds & subsides. Pleasant beginning to end, reminiscent of a good lowland scotch. I'd suggest overpriced for what it is.
I think that was the blended
Pleasant on the nose. Creamy/buttery. A bit of a nothing on the palette. Admittedly I like whisky that fights back. My favourite is Laphroaig but I also enjoy gentler tastes such as Cardhu. My first Japanese whisky and I will probably try another one sometime, but not this one.
