“Kanro”, meaning Cold Dew, marks the first chapter in Akkeshi Distillery’s ambitious 24 Solar Terms series — a collection inspired by the traditional Japanese seasonal calendar. Representing the quiet shift into mid-autumn, this release captures the crispness in the air, the soft hush of falling leaves, and the natural stillness before winter arrives.
Crafted in the misty coastal town of Akkeshi in Hokkaido, this single malt is a bold yet refined expression of Japan’s northern terroir. With a peat level of approximately 30ppm and aged in a variety of casks — including bourbon, sherry, wine, and Japanese Mizunara oak — Kanro reveals a complex tapestry of aromas and flavors that evolve with every sip.
