Nagahama Amahagan World Blended Hikiyama Edition PX Sherry Butt Japanese Blended Whisky (2021) 70cl

1 of 1000 bottles

Founded in 2016, Nagahama on the shores of Lake Biwa, is the smallest whisky distillery in Japan, and is operated by Nagahama Roman Beer, who have been brewing since 1996.

This blended whisky was aged in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks.

The Nagahama Distillery have released some superb whiskies to date, including their much-loved world blended whisky series sold under the Amahagan brand name. This is the newest expression in that line of bottlings and it was created by carefully blending whisky from a number of countries before maturing it in a Pedro Ximenez Sherry Butt that has imparted an incredible array of rich and fruity notes onto the smooth and elegant spirit. The distillery are becoming masters of making these expressions and this is another must-try.

We do not get to see a lot of Japanese Whisky in PX these days

About Amahagan 

Amahagan is a brand of blended malt whisky produced by the small Nagahama Distillery in Japan, which was founded in 2016. The name "Amahagan" is an anagram of "Nagahama," and the brand's World Malt series blends whiskies made at the Nagahama distillery with single malts from around the world. The distillery uses small, uniquely shaped stills that have been nicknamed "aranbics" due to their resemblance to Arabic architecture.
