Tasting Notes
Embark on a sensorial journey with the Amahagan World Malt Edition No. 2 - Red Wine Wood Finish, a masterfully crafted blend of Japanese and foreign whiskies from the boutique Nagahama distillery. The nose enchants with a harmonious medley of malty toffee, tangy blackcurrants, luscious damson jam, and aromatic baking spices. Upon the first sip, a richly fruity explosion unfolds on the palate, akin to a decadent jam, intertwined with sweet red fruit notes, warm baking spices, a peppery kick, and the delicate fragrance of orange blossoms. As the liquid lingers, a velvety sweet spice finish emerges, subtly accompanied by hints of dark chocolate, leaving a lingering and satisfying impression. Bottled at a robust 47% ABV, this expression undergoes no chill-filtering or artificial coloring, preserving its unadulterated essence. Indulge in the artistry of Nagahama's reverse-named Amahagan range, a testament to the passion and craftsmanship of one of Japan's smallest and youngest distilleries.
