Tenjaku Pure Malt Whisky 43% 700ml captures the essence of Japanese craftsmanship with its refined and balanced character. Crafted entirely from 100% malted barley at the Fuefuki Distillery in Yamanashi Prefecture, this whisky embodies Japan’s dedication to harmony and nature. Aged in a blend of American oak barrels and re-charred casks, Tenjaku offers a rich complexity that elevates the pure malt expression.
Distilled in the pristine foothills of Mount Fuji, the whisky benefits from the region’s soft, mineral-rich spring water, which imparts a clean and polished profile. The non-peated spirit is carefully matured without chill filtration, preserving its depth, texture, and natural clarity.
The nose reveals inviting aromas of green apple, honeyed cereal, and roasted nuts, layered with subtle hints of vanilla pod and fresh citrus peel. On the palate, it is smooth yet structured, delivering flavors of toffee, toasted oak, barley sugar, and white pepper. Mid-palate notes of ripe pear and plum skin add fruit complexity, finishing with warming spice and a dry mineral edge.
Key highlights include:
- 100% malt whisky offering richer, spicier notes with toasted oak and dark fruit nuances
- A bold step up in complexity and depth compared to blended counterparts
- Elegant and expressive Japanese malt whisky at an accessible price point
Tenjaku Pure Malt is a masterful expression of Japanese whisky tradition—precise, mellow, and approachable. It is perfect for contemplative sipping neat or as a sophisticated base for a highball. Experience a whisky that balances artistry and simplicity, reflecting the serene beauty of its Yamanashi origins.
