Akashi Single Malt Whisky in Sherry Cask 5 year 750 ML

Akashi Single Malt Whisky Sherry Cask 5 Year is a Japanese single malt from White Oak Distillery in Akashi, Hyogo Prefecture. Aged five years in sherry casks, it takes on the dried-fruit richness and deep color that sherry wood is known for delivering. White Oak is one of Japan's smaller, older distilleries, working on a scale closer to a craft operation than the giants of Suntory or Nikka. The sherry influence pushes this toward dark fruit, spice, and gentle oak rather than the lighter, more delicate profile some Japanese malts chase. Pour it neat or with a splash of water to open up the fruit. It suits drinkers who already like sherried Scotch and want to see how a Japanese distillery handles the same cask.
