Xennox Diamonds Japanese Whisky Event


An excellently orchestrated night of fine Japanese Whisky paired with exquisite food at the Xennox Diamond store.

The impressive knowledge from Rowan Prangley provided the the crowd with an in depth review of these beautiful Japanese whiskies.

We commenced the evening by tasting the amazing Yamazaki Distillers Reserve Single Malt Whisky, A beautiful sharp multi layered taste with mild subtle hints of fresh fruit, vanilla, cinnamon and Japanese oak.

Second to taste was my personal favourite of the night, The White Oak Akashi Black Whisky.
The aroma is delicate with its soft notes of spices and vanilla, this whisky comes to life as the liquid gold excites the tastebuds. The White Oak Akashi Black is soft and full on your palate and a real crowd pleaser, A very easy drinking Japanese blend. 

And finally wrapping up this esteemed evening with Mars Twin Alps Blended Whisky, A great blended whisky soft and fruity and very refreshing on the palate with a great long linger.




What an excellent night of Japanese Whisky thanks to Xennox Diamonds and Karl Schwantes,

See you at the next one!
