Takamine Koji Whiskey Sakura Cask

Takamine 8-Year Japanese Whiskey

A true innovation in whiskey-making, Takamine 8-Year is crafted using the patented Takamine Process, which incorporates Japanese Koji mold to ferment barley — a technique borrowed from sake brewing. This revolutionary approach delivers a whiskey that harmoniously blends rich umami depth with subtle sweetness.

Expect notes of caramel, pipe tobacco, dark cherries, and creamy milk chocolate, all balanced by a sophisticated savory character rarely found in modern whiskies. Double pot distilled and aged in American white oak casks, this 80.6-proof expression offers a smooth yet complex sip that whiskey enthusiasts won’t want to miss.

Discover a bold fusion of tradition and creativity with every pour.
