  Expert Description

  Akashi Meisei is a Blended Japanese Whisky, bottled at 40%.

  The whisky comes from Eigashima Shuzo, known under the White Oak whisky brand, which in 1919 became the first Japanese distillery to be licensed to make whisky - years before both Yamazaki and Yoichi. Meisei, meaning "fame" in Japanese, matures across a combination of bourbon, shochu and virgin oak casks.
