    Date is a blend made by the Miyagikyo distillery, located close to Sendai, a town 300 km to the north of Tokyo. The blend is a combination of malt and grain whisky produced in coffey stills. It is named after Date Masamune, the famous feudal warlord who ruled the area around Sendai during the 17th century.

    Blended Whisky

    Blended whisky is an artful marriage of different types of whiskies, typically combining grain whiskies with malt whiskies from various distilleries. This blending process aims to achieve a balance, creating a whisky with a harmonious flavour profile where the strengths of each component are highlighted, while any potential weaknesses are cleverly masked. Blended whiskies offer a consistent taste across batches, making them a favourite for both new whisky drinkers and connoisseurs alike. They can vary widely in style, often providing a smoother, more approachable character than single malts, and are perfect for enjoying neat, on the rocks, or as the foundation for a cocktail. Each blend is a unique recipe, often kept secret by master blenders, showcasing their expertise in creating a spirit that's greater than the sum of its parts.
