Rum Nine Leaves Angel`s Half 2020 3y American Oak cask Japan 50%vol 0,7l Otsu Shiga

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

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. After 3 years of cask ageing, this new rum 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 crest, a nine-leaf bamboo leaf.

 With a strong commitment to quality, Takeuchi built his micro-distillery. He uses muscovado sugar (pure raw cane sugar), which has great significance in Japan and is made exclusively from Japanese sugar cane. After double distillation, a very pure, clear rum emerges, presenting itself on the nose with a very fruity bouquet and, compared with other rested rum varieties, showing a wide range 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 his 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 much 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 exceeds all expectations and leaves us eagerly and excitedly looking forward to the coming bottlings.

The great variety and regularly released new bottlings have now also made the rounds among collectors and are very popular.

Monozukuri - this 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 continues to surprise time and again. At Nine Leaves, there is every reason to look forward to the upcoming bottlings. Since only small quantities are produced, with an average of only 80 to 120 bottles reaching Germany, you should decide quickly!
