Takamine - 8 Year Koji Whiskey (750ml)
Discerning drinkers will notice caramel, pipe tobacco, dark cherries, and milk chocolate tempered by a refined, savory character rarely found in modern whiskies.
Takamine Description
Thanks to the patented Takamine Process, which uses Japanese Koji mold to help ferment the barley, this 8-year whiskey perfectly blends rich umami character with an underlying sweetness.

Clean and zippy, the nose revolves around lemon curd, lime juice, lemon meringue pie, and chalky Love Hearts candies, with a spritz of grapefruit peel oils. The mouthfeel and body are light, but it’s packed with flavor Lemon mousse, tangy candied orange, vanilla, honey, white pepper, plus a hint of butterscotch, gooseberry fool, and grapefruit flesh toward the end. It concludes with vanilla cream and a tangy citrus edge.
Wine Enthusiast: 90 Points
Nutty and spiced, this whisky offers almond and coconut aromas. The rounded palate echoes those nutty tones alongside richer hazelnut and cocoa, leading into a long finish warmed with nutmeg, clove and cinnamon.
