The Oak Less Traveled – Amahagan Edition No.2 Mongolian Oak Finish
🌏 Description
Amahagan World Malt Edition No.2 is a striking evolution in Nagahama Distillery’s experimental whisky journey. Blending malt whiskies from around the world, this edition is finished in Mongolian oak casks, bringing an unexpected layer of richness, spice, and aromatic complexity.
Nagahama’s global blending philosophy — expressed through Amahagan — thrives on innovation and cross-cultural flavor fusion. Edition No.2 presents notes of nutmeg, roasted grain, caramelized wood, and sweet black tea, with a subtle tannic grip from the oak. On the palate, you’ll find plum skin, earthy spice, burnt toffee, and hints of smoked clove, unfolding into a long, dry, and subtly peppered finish.
Crafted by one of Japan’s most intimate distilleries, this release captures the courage to explore nontraditional woods and the finesse to balance them within a Japanese framework. It’s an ideal dram for whisky enthusiasts who want their palate pushed gently outside the familiar.
