Description
Made in Kyoto Shuzo, Kyoto Whisky Aka-Obi is made with carefully chosen grain and malt whiskies, some of which are imported. With the lovely scent of vanilla it forms a well-balanced taste enjoyable for any drinking styles.
The cloth label was made using a customary technique called Nishijin-ori. Kyoto is the birthplace of this craft.
Kyoto Miyako Distillery, situated in Kyotanba Town in the heart of Kyoto Prefecture, is the city’s first whisky distillery. Situated in the Tamba Plateau region, Kyotanba Town boasts an ideal natural setting for the production of whisky. Rich in natural resources, the Yura River near the winery is well-known as a natural fishing spot.

A compelling nose featuring pronounced notes of crushed apple, sea salt, dark chocolate, dried cherries, and whispers of charred driftwood. Effortlessly smooth of the palate with a velvety smoothness that leads to a lasting comfortable finish.
