Hatozaki Small Batch 12 Year Umeshu Cask Finish 750ml
JAPAN : HYOGO : AKASHI
100% Malted Barley — Blended Malt
RICH, APRICOT, YELLOW PLUM, MALTY HONEY, FRESH PEAR
Named after Hatozaki Lighthouse — Japan’s oldest, built in 1657 on the Akashi coast — this is the whisky program of Akashi Sake Brewery, a family operation in Hyogo Prefecture since 1856. Kaikyo Distillery came online in 2017 under founder Kimio Yonezawa, carrying 170 years of fermentation tradition into the still house.
The blend starts as premium single malts, each aged a minimum of 12 years in American oak. After vatting, it spends six months in bespoke barrels that previously held Umeshu — Japanese plum liqueur — before bottling non-chill filtered at 46%, no added color.
