Akashi Takumi is a premium Japanese whisky expression from Eigashima Shuzo, also known as White Oak Distillery, located in Hyogo Prefecture. The word “Takumi” translates to “master craftsman” in Japanese, reflecting the artistry and precision behind this bottling. Produced in small batches, it highlights the distillery’s dedication to balance, tradition, and innovation.
This blend is made from malted barley and grain whiskies, double‑distilled in pot stills. The spirit is first matured for three years in American oak bourbon casks, which impart smoothness and vanilla sweetness. It is then finished for at least three months in Oloroso sherry casks, adding depth, richness, and a distinctive layer of dried fruit and nut flavors. Bottled at 40% ABV in a 500ml format, Akashi Takumi is approachable yet complex, designed to appeal to both newcomers and seasoned whisky enthusiasts.
