Read moreCreated by master blenders Inagaki Takahiko, Komei Shimono, and renowned whisky blogger Kuririn San, this whisky is a skilful blend of Scottish malts with malts from 5 Japanese distilleries, highlighting the individuality of each distillery symbolized as a piece of a puzzle.Â
The Last Piece World Blended Malt has a smooth, woody flavor profile, enhanced by a subtle smoky note. The nose evokes bewitching aromas of apricot jam and ripe apple. On the palate, its texture is both fruity and smooth, gradually revealing delicate notes of chestnut and castella. Finally, it leaves an unforgettable imprint with a long, robust finish, where discreet peaty and oak fragrances blend harmoniously.
This blended malt features a bold combination of malts aged for 3 years in Bourbon and Sherry casks from : Eigashima (lightly peated malt), Sakurao (non-peated malt), Saburomaru (very peated malt), Nagahama (non-peated malt), and a secret Japanese distillery (non-peated malt). In addition, to bring a subtle maturity and unique complexity, a touch of Scottish malt aged in Japan has been added.
The master blenders created this limited edition of just 800 bottles by skilfully combining the distinct characteristics of each distillery, like a puzzle taking shape with the last piece, hence the name "The Last Piece". The Japanese Kumiko motif printed on the label recalls this harmonious union.
Product limited to 2 bottles per order.

The distillery Wakatsuru Saburomaru
The history of Saburomaru distillery located in Tonami city (Toyama prefecture) starts in 1952 when Wakatsuro Shuzo, sake brewer and shochu producer, obtained the license to distill whisky.
Malt distillation began in 1954 with the creation of the Sunshine blend, and will continue discontinuously until 2016 when Wakatsuru Shuzo made the decision to renovate its facilities in the Hokuriku area to dedicate them to the production of malt whisky.
