One of the newest and smallest distilleries in Japan, Amahagans first releases only contain a small amount of their own new make spirit. The rest of the blend is sourced from similarly small distilleries Strathearn and Eden Mill, both from Scotland. On the shores of Lake Biwa in Nagahama City, the Amahagan (see what they did there?) World Malt Edition whiskies explore their unique blend from 4 different types of cask maturation or finishing. Numbers 2, 3 and 4 from this series are based on No. 1.

Edition No. 4 has been finished in a Yamazakura wood cask. A very Japanese treatment, Yamazakura wood imparts a light cherry blossom flavour on the nose and palate. A bouquet of light flavours adorn this whisky, a very pleasant drop.
