The Whisky Edition Nr. 2 Red Wine Wood Finish of Amahagan is born from the skillful union between Japanese tradition and the influence of red wine barrel wood, giving this spirit a unique and enveloping character. Produced in Japan, this whisky stands out for the particular aging technique, which involves a long and delicate passage in barrels that once contained quality red wines, thus enriching the aromatic profile with warm and spicy notes.

On the nose, it opens with intense scents of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and currants, accompanied by hints of vanilla and soft tannins, a clear sign of the passage in wine wood. The palate confirms this complexity, with a rich and rounded taste that combines the sweetness of fruit with the typical minerality of the barrels, never becoming excessive or unbalanced. The finish is persistent, characterized by a slightly spicy and rounded aftertaste, inviting another sip.

Perfect to enjoy neat or with a splash of water, this whisky is ideal for those seeking an elegant and refined tasting experience, capable of evoking the aromas of Japanese vineyards and the artisanal mastery of distillation.
