Tokinoka The
White Oak Distillery is owned by Eigashima Shuzo, who have nearly 100 years
of whisky-making experience in Japan, but actually date back as far as 1679.
Located in Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture, its an area regarded for clean air
and water and its close proximity to Osaka, overlooking the picturesque Seto
Inland Sea. In fact, it is the only distillery in Japan to situated by the
coast.
Eigashima Shuzo first entered the spirit business to make sake and shochu
in 1888, before it obtained a license to make whisky in Japan in 1919, after
reacting to the increase in demand for imported whiskies. As one of the
pioneers in this field, the original distillery was built in the Scottish
style and used only specially-selected barley imported from Scotland,
combined with that same fresh water supply from an underground source thats
used in its making of Japanese sake.
The White Oak Distillery was established in 1984, transporting the pot
stills and washbacks from the old facility and converting the previous
stillhouse into a warehouse. The distillery location has a fascinating effect
on the maturation of the whisky, not only because of any coastal influences,
but because of the huge temperature differences between summer and winter.Manufacturer
