It is picturesquely situated at around 400 meters in the hills of the Satsuma Peninsula and is now expanding Japan’s single malt portfolio: Founded in 2019, the Ontake Distillery relies on an abundance of pure, natural, soft water from the Kagoshima region, home-grown yeast, unpeated barley malt and carefully selected old sherry barrels. In addition, Ontake has the approximately 180 years of distilling expertise of its parent company, Nishi Sake Brewery, at its disposal during production.

Its aroma unfolds at an unfiltered 43% vol.
The authentic premiere is packaged in a wooden box that conveys a message of enjoyment on the inside: “Have a great time with Ontake!”
