New arrival of single cask from Akkeshi Distillery. A limited edition of 252 bottles of this precious whisky was produced in collaboration with a major Dutch liquor distributor.
To celebrate this collaboration, we are honored to present the Claude X Salud Friendship Cask. This whisky is aged in sherry casks, producing a complex, fruity, spicy aroma and a smooth, smoky flavor. This release is special because there are only 252 bottles of this limited edition worldwide. The label was co-created by both parties, with the upper portion reflecting the house style of Salud Spirits and the lower portion depicting the iconic stone facade of the Claude’s Whisky store in Japan.
