Akkeshi Shosetsu The Greeting of Snow Blended Japanese Whisky
Akkeshi Shosetsu The Greeting of Snow Blended Japanese Whisky is the thirteenth release in the 24 Sekki series from Akkeshi Distillery in eastern Hokkaido, a coastal distillery making Islay-inspired whisky in Japan's far north. Shosetsu is the micro-season when the first snow dusts the mountain peaks, the quiet prelude to winter. This malt and grain blend includes whisky matured in rare Hokkaido mizunara oak alongside ex-bourbon, sherry and red wine casks, all aged at least three years, and is bottled non-chill filtered at 48% ABV.
It opens with a citrus-forward bouquet of candied lemon, pickled ume and sweet grain. The palate brings orange peel, smoky cedar and layers of texture that culminate in a complex finish of bitter lemon peel and vanilla cream. It is elegant and expressive, best neat or with a few drops of water.
Each Sekki release is limited, and this 700ml bottle offers Japanese terroir, barrel artistry and seasonal subtlety in one glass. Buy Akkeshi Shosetsu The Greeting of Snow Blended Japanese Whisky online with fast shipping right to your door.
