Nine Leaves Encrypted IV Rum Japan 58% vol 0.7l Otsu Shiga

There is news from Japan that we do not want to keep from you. Nine Leaves Encrypted IV has also arrived. Nine Leaves is well on its way to achieving cult status, and the Encrypted series in particular is attracting a lot of attention. As always, the quantity available for Germany is very limited, only 120 bottles. . 

Joshiharu Takeuchi keeps delighting us with exciting bottlings from his small pot still setup. In 2021, we received 60 bottles of the American Oak Rum, which was matured for a full 3 years in American oak.

In the early years of the distillery, Yoshi had already released several Angel's Half bottlings. However, the first products were matured for only 6 months or 1 year and were therefore comparatively very young. This new rum, after 3 years of cask maturation, appears significantly darker and more mature. In terms of taste, it impresses with an enormous step up from an aromatic perspective. Greater complexity and more depth clearly set it apart from its predecessors!

NINE LEAVES is a craft distillery founded in 2013 in Otsu, Shiga Prefecture, Japan, by Yoshiharu Takeuchi, named after his family logo, the nine-leaf bamboo leaf.

 With a strong commitment to quality, Takeuchi built his micro-distillery. He uses Muscovado sugar (pure, raw cane sugar), which is of great importance in Japan and is made exclusively from Japanese sugarcane. After double distillation, a very pure, clear rum emerges, presenting itself on the nose with a very fruity bouquet and, compared with other unaged rum varieties, offering a wide variety of aromas. This white Nine Leaves Clear, with its fruity notes, is reminiscent of a blend of fruit brandy, rum, and rhum agricole. But above all, with the young cask-aged bottlings, Takeuchi has shown in recent years just how good young rum can be.  His willingness to experiment with a wide variety of casks (American oak, French oak, ex-Cabernet Sauvignon, ex-brandy, ex-sherry PX, and many more) leaves nothing to be desired. The comparatively young age of the youngest bottlings from 2014 at 6 months and the now oldest from 2019 at 4 years is in no way too young or unbalanced; rather, it surpasses all expectations and leaves us eagerly and excitedly looking forward to the upcoming bottlings.

The great variety and the regularly released new bottlings have now also caught the attention of collectors and are extremely popular.

Monozukuri - that is the driving force behind the passion to create a perfect product. Yoshiharu Takeuchi pursues the production of his rum with precisely this Japanese passion for craftsmanship and keeps surprising us time and again. With Nine Leaves, there is plenty to look forward to in the upcoming bottlings. Since only small quantities are produced, with an average of just 80 to 120 bottles coming to Germany, you should decide quickly!
