The Amahagan World Malt Whisky Edition No. 2 RED WINE WOOD Finish is a characterful world blended malt whisky, bottled at 47 per cent in a 0.7-litre bottle, complete with a gift box. As the second edition in the Amahagan series, it combines selected malt whiskies from various countries with new make spirit from the Japanese Nagahama Distillery. This small distillery is situated near Mount Ibuki and Lake Biwa, and uses particularly compact stills for distillation. A distinctive feature is the so-called ‘Aranbic Pot Stills’, whose name derives from their shape, which is reminiscent of traditional Arabic stills. The Nagahama new make contributes a particularly pronounced malty character to the blend.


The defining feature of the Amahagan Edition No. 2 is the Red Wine Wood Finish. After blending, the whisky undergoes further maturation in red wine casks, the influence of which enriches the malty base with notes of dark fruit, tannins and spicy elements. Maturation under Japan’s climatic conditions, with significant temperature fluctuations, also influences the interaction between the distillate and the wood. The combination of international malt whiskies, Nagahama New Make and the red wine finish results in a unique interpretation of a ‘World Malt’. With a robust 47% ABV, this edition is aimed particularly at whisky enthusiasts seeking fruity and experimental cask finishes.
