Koji Meets Sherry — Japan's Most Unique Whisky Tradition
Ikikko is crafted using koji — the sacred mold (Aspergillus oryzae) that is the foundation of sake, miso, and soy sauce production in Japan — as part of the fermentation process, creating a whisky with a uniquely Japanese character that cannot be replicated by any other method. The 8 Year Sherry Cask expression adds the richness of Oloroso sherry maturation to this already distinctive base, creating a whisky of extraordinary complexity and cultural depth.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Unique and complex. Koji's characteristic umami depth leads with sherry-driven dried fruit, a subtle earthiness, and a warm, distinctly Japanese character.
- Palate: Rich and layered. Sherry fruit and koji complexity interplay with a gentle sweetness and a depth that speaks to 8 years of patient maturation.
- Finish: Long and warming. Dried fruit and a subtle koji earthiness linger with a satisfying, uniquely Japanese close.
