Amahagan Edition No. 1 Blended Malt Whisky is the first whisky produced by Nagahama Distillery, and the first in the World Malts series consisting of blends of new malts distilled on-site in Japan with malts imported from overseas. This first series of whisky has been named Amahagan which represents the name of the Nagahama distillery read from right to left. 

This blended malt is Nagahama's very first creation and presents a glimpse of the future character of the young distillery's whiskies by showcasing the blending work of the Master Blender. Expressing a rich and fruity profile, the whisky has a variety of aromas including orange, apple, vanilla, and nutty notes.

Located on the site of the Roman Beer brewery on the shores of Lake Biwa, Nagahama is the smallest distillery in Japan and is one of the emerging distilleries in Japan. Inaugurated in 2016, it is equipped with the smallest stills of the archipelago whose atypical shape is reminiscent of Arab constructions from which they derive their nickname "aranbics".

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Orange, chocolate, vanilla, and nuts from oak
