Eigashima 2014

Like much of the Japanese whisky industry, Eigashima Distillery is an enigmatic little distillery located on the coast in southern Japan. Boasting a rich history of distillation going back hundreds of years, it only began distilling whisky in the 1960s and remains a small producer that only distills its whisky during specific times of the year. The rest of the year is spent making shochu, sake, wine and more. Like many other Japanese whisky distilleries, Eigashima focuses its whisky production around blends – with its flagship product being its Akashi White Oak blend that is normally presented at 40% ABV and smooth, easy to drink profile.
