Description
The Akashi Takumi is a beautifully balanced Japanese Blended Whisky, a testament to the skill of the master blenders at the historic Eigashima Shuzo Distillery, one of Japan’s longest-established whisky producers. The name ‘Takumi’ translates to ‘artisan’ or ‘master craftsman,’ perfectly capturing the attention to detail poured into this expression. Crafted from a blend of around 30% malt and 70% grain whisky, it is initially matured in American oak barrels, imbuing it with vanilla sweetness and a smooth texture. The blend then undergoes a meticulous six-month finish in Spanish sherry casks, which introduces a rich, fruity complexity. Bottled at a versatile 40% ABV, it’s an ideal choice to buy premium whisky in South Africa.
Enjoy Akashi Takumi neat, over a large ice cube, or as the sophisticated base for an Old Fashioned. Secure this exceptional bottle for prompt liquor delivery across South Africa from Decanter Liquor.
