Description
This is a dual-cask, cask strength bottling from Eigashima Shuzo, distilled in 2018 at its Akashi distillery in Hyogo and bottled in 2022 from casks number 101857 and 101858. At 3 Years Old and 62% ABV, it sits at the young, fierce end of the Akashi range, an honest expression of the coastal Hyogo new make with minimal time to round out.
Ex-Bourbon maturation gives the spirit its backbone of vanilla and cereal sweetness, while the flavour notes record cooked fruit, pointing to a ripe, warming character that the cask strength ABV amplifies. The entry-level age is typical of small-batch releases from this house's Japan-market cask programme, where individual wood selections offer a candid, unfiltered look at the distillery's spirit.
