Akkeshi 24 Solar Terms Series – 10th Edition: Keichitsu (Awakening of Insects)

Akkeshi 24 Solar Terms Series – 10th Edition: Keichitsu (Awakening of Insects)
“Keichitsu” is the third solar term in the traditional 24 Solar Terms calendar, symbolizing the awakening of hibernating insects and the arrival of vibrant spring. Inspired by this, Akkeshi crafted a lively and layered single malt whisky reflecting the energy and vitality of spring’s rebirth.
Matured in bourbon, sherry, wine, and Japanese Mizunara oak casks, this expression reveals fresh floral notes, ripe fruits, and citrus aromas, complemented by gentle peat smoke and spice. The palate is full-bodied and balanced, with harmonious smoky and fruity flavors. The finish is long and warm with subtle woody tones.
