SOLD OUT

NINE LEAVES White Last Drops

$140.00

Founded in 2013 by Yoshiharu Takeuchi, the Nine Leaves distillery features the family crest adorned with nine bamboo leaves.

After working with Ichiro Akuto, owner of the Chichibu distillery, he clearly displays his ambition: to create an exceptional rum by applying the artisanal production methods of single malt.

To achieve this, he chooses to settle in Shiga Prefecture, near an underground spring renowned for the sweetness and purity of its water from Mount Ishiyama. Named Last Drop, this version comes from the last distillate produced by Nine Leaves, which closed its doors in 2023: a flavorful blend of power and sweetness, it stands out for its oxidative character and fresh cane juice flavors.

Tasting Notes


Colour
: Colorless.

Nose : Rich, creamy. Highly concentrated, the aromatic palette reveals scents of honey, cane sugar, pink pepper, and apricot. This original opening extends into anise and menthol fragrances. The overall experience is then covered by a fine layer of licorice.

Palate : Lively, tense. Thunderous and dynamic, the flavor profile initially requires some taming. Gaining creaminess, it unveils flavors of fresh cane juice along with more citrusy and fermentative notes (brewing). Medicinal (bandage, mustard plaster), it gradually takes on a mustard-like quality.

Finish : Long, full of verve. Clearly approaching sugarcane and its fibrous character, the tasting continues into creamier notes (almond, hazelnut). In retro-olfaction, the resemblance to a very floral and herbal malted barley distillate is not just a figment of the imagination.
