Product details
Emerging from a vision grounded in elegance and precision, Sasakawa single malt is a refined expression born of Japan’s storied affinity for balance and grace. The house sources immaculate barley and immerses its liquid in carefully selected oak casks, aging it within a climate that sees both crisp mountain air and humid valleys. With each season, the wood gently whispers its character into the liquid, weaving support without dominance. The result is a harmonious offering that walks the line between delicate floral touches and supple richness — one that rewards both quiet contemplation and a shared moment.
On the nose, this bottling offers soft floral petals, a trace of clover-honey, ripe peach fuzz, and delicate vanilla bean, underpinned by a whisper of green peas or freshly shelled legumes. On the palate, it reveals orchard fruits—think white peach and subtle apricot—alongside creamy vanilla and warm toffee. A light leafy astringency and hints of marjoram add grip, while touches of red fruit appear in the mid-palate. The finish lingers gently, leaving lingering vanilla, a gentle spice note, and fine, polished texture.
