White Oak Akashi Blended

A very cheap expression of the Akashi line that isn't 100% Whisky but blended with some other spirits. (in Japan a bottle costs around 10€, in Europe around 40€ -_-')

• Nose: A bit alcoholic, a bit malty, typical cheap blend nose
• Mouth: mild, flowery
• Finish: Malt, sweetness, medium long, a bit bitter

Comments: In comparison to other blends in the 10€ category it's decent. In comparison to other 40€ whiskies it's quite bad. All in all fairly bland and boring but nothing horrible. Definitely not worth the 40+ Euros they want here.
