Cuvée presentation

A single cask of Nine Leaves that was distilled in 2014, aged in bourbon casks and then bottled in 2024. Taking over the reins of the family business, Yoshiharu Takeuchi announced at the end of 2023 that he would be closing his Nine Leaves distillery after a decade of operation. Some months later, he gave away all ageing stocks and his last batch of white rums to the Italian distributor, Velier, which is managed by Luca Gargano, one of the greatest experts in the world of rum. Aged in a second-fill American oak cask, this version–distilled in 2014–is the highlight of a tasting reminiscent of this already iconic brand. With remarkable fullness, its aromatic and flavour palate shine through the beauty of its extremely fruity aromas and the grandeur of its several spices.

The distillery Nine Leaves

Japan’s Nine Leaves distillery in the Shiga Prefecture of Honshu opened in 2013. Although founder Yoshiharu Takeuchi wanted to produce rum, he asked for the help of Ichiro Akuto (Chichibu), who recommended he buy Forsyths stills and Glenfarclas-style washbacks. The wort is an original combination of muscovado sugar and water, which is double distilled after fermentation then matured in French and American oak casks.
