Product details
With roots that trace back to the visionary Masataka Taketsuru—often honored as the father of Japanese whisky—the house behind this expression carries forward a legacy of precision and artistry. Drawing on two distinct regions of production, it blends together the land‑inspired character of Hokkaidō’s rugged environment with the refined elegance of Honshū’s valleys. This 17‑year‑aged bottle is presented in a distinguished gift box, underscoring its status as a refined tribute and a celebratory offering. The craftsmanship shines through in its seamless harmony—rich yet composed, designed for both connoisseurs and those marking a milestone.
On the nose, expect soft waves of honeyed vanilla and orchard fruits that evoke ripe apples and gentle citrus peel. The palate unfolds with a velvety texture, revealing layered notes of dark chocolate, dried berries, and a whisper of warm oak. The finish lingers with bittersweet cocoa and a smooth wood‑driven depth that speaks to years of careful maturation. It is an experience of elegance and nuance—measured, expressive and refined.
