Read moreThis Deluxe version of the Akashi Meïsei blend also aged in American oak barrels, has the difference of being a blend of 50% malted barley and 50% grain whiskey, but also benefited from an additional one-year refining in Sherry cask.
The soft and sweet aromatic profile of Akashi Meïsei Deluxe is fully expressed on the nose with notes of honey, vanilla, chocolate, cinnamon and orange zest and delivering on the palate a mellow and balanced character with woody and spicy aromas, and notes of dried fruits and nuts. It is the finish that will highlight the maturation in Sherry casks the most with vinous and fruity notes.

The brand Akashi
Created in 2007 by Mikio Hiraishi, the Akashi brand is declined in numerous bottlings such as single casks, single malts or blends whose quality is now widely recognized and appreciated throughout the world.
Mikio Hiraishi's creativity can be seen in each Akashi whisky with the use of a wide variety of casks for aging, from traditional bourbon and sherry casks to red and white wine casks from Yamanashi, or even sake casks used for the maturation of the Akashi Saké Cask single malt.
