This Nine Leaves is part of an exceptional series, hailing from the distillery founded in 2013 by Yoshiharu Takeuchi in the Japanese city of Otsu.<\/p>\n
In Nine Leaves, Yoshiharu did everything himself, from moving barrels to bottling; then, at the end of 2023, he decided to close the distillery. A few months later, the entire stock of aged rum and the last batch of white rum were purchased by La Maison & Velier, who are carrying on an extraordinary, evolving legacy.<\/p>\n
The raw material that makes up Nine Leaves rums is also exceptional: pure water from an underground spring and Kokuto sugar from the Okinawan archipelago. Fermentation lasts about four days, while distillation takes place in two Scottish Forsyth\u2019s pot stills: the first inspired by Chichibu and the second in the Glenmorangie style, with a great balance that enhances aromatic complexity. Once distilled, the rums are aged in different types of casks, in two different locations: a warehouse subject to significant temperature fluctuations or an abandoned mine, with high humidity and very low temperatures.<\/p>\n
This 5-year-old Nine Leaves 2020 has been aged entirely in Pedro Xim\u00e9nez casks, giving the rum remarkable intensity and aromatic depth. Bottled at 60.1% ABV, this is single cask No. 21, offered in a strictly limited edition of 464 bottles, confirming its exclusivity among connoisseurs.<\/p>\n
On the nose, it reveals intense notes of lightly burnt black cane sugar, crossed by medicinal, floral, fruity, and honeyed nuances. On the palate, it is rich and deep, with hints of balm, chocolate, ginger, cinnamon, and iris that evolve into nuances of orange, honey, and undergrowth. The palate is lively, rich in fibrous and empyreumatic notes, combined with fruity and honeyed ones, which over time bring out bitter orange marmalade, quince, and vanilla. The finish is soft, enhanced by the influence of Pedro Xim\u00e9nez.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
