Akkeshi Japanese Whisky

Akkeshi Japanese Whisky hails from the rugged coastline of Hokkaido, where the distillery blends traditional Scottish whisky-making methods with Japan’s unique terroir. Known for its peated style, Akkeshi produces complex, smoky whiskies influenced by the cool maritime climate and aging in a variety of cask types including Mizunara oak. Often called the “Islay of Japan,” Akkeshi’s expressions are bold yet refined, offering layered notes of smoke, brine, spice, and sweetness. With limited releases and meticulous craftsmanship, Akkeshi has quickly become a standout in Japan’s new wave of premium whisky producers.
