Akkeshi’s 24 Sekki series seeks to evoke the micro seasons of the Japanese solar year, expressing seasonal nuance in liquid form. Hakuro is the heart of September, the 8th through the 22nd, when dewy summer nights embrace the last of summer’s vibrance. Akkeshi’s Hakuro – Glistening White Dew represents this voluptuous atmosphere through a single malt lush with mouthwatering pastry notes balanced by flashes of fruit and tannin.
