The Japanese distillery Akkeshi was founded in 2016 by the company Kenten Jitsugyo whose leader, Keiichi Toita, was seduced by the smoky and peaty notes of Islay malts during his first "unforgettable" experience with a 17-year-old Ardbeg in a bar from Ginza.
Nicknamed little Lagavulin, the Akkeshi distillery is located on the island of Hokkaido, the northernmost of Japan, where it enjoys a cool and humid climate with frequent sea fogs reminiscent of the climate of the famous Scottish distillery.
In this lush natural environment, the distillery's guideline is to combine traditional Scottish methods and unique local resources from Japan to craft their Japanese take on Islay Smoked Malt Whiskies.
It will be necessary to wait until 2020 to see the appearance of the first Japanese Single Malt whiskey from the Akkeshi distillery, a true embodiment of local craftsmanship.
