Rokksan Distillery was established in 2020. It is located on the top of Mount Rokko at an altitude of about 800 meters. It is currently one of the highest whisky distilleries in Japan. It was formerly a mountain recreation facility. After renovation, it was equipped with professional distiller from Slovenia and carried out secondary distillation. The whole process adheres to the principle of handmade and small batch brewing, and the annual output is only about 11,000 liters. Coupled with the aging warehouse that can only accommodate 400 barrels, Rokkosan whisky is extremely valuable in the market.

The most unique thing about Rokkosan whisky is that it gets rid of the stereotype of "Japanese whisky = elegant and gentle". It uses Scottish imported matured peat raw liquor, which is then blended and distilled in Rokkosan, showing a strong peat smoked characteristic. The aroma is accompanied by the scent of herbs, smoked malt and sea salt, and the aftertaste is steady and long, full of strong European personality, but not losing balance. This hybrid style that combines Japanese brewing techniques with the Scottish terroir spirit has attracted drinkers who love heavy-flavored whiskeys, and has also become a sought-after object for high-end bars and collectors.

"Rokkosan Single Malt Whisky Smoky Edition" exudes the earthy scent of campfire smoke and peat. The sweetness of caramel malt and the rich smoky flavor are impressive, and the aroma of orange peel can be felt occasionally. The peat smoke is accompanied by a slightly bitter taste similar to dark chocolate, and the aftertaste is as refreshing and lasting as the sea breeze blowing from the port town.

Designed for lovers of smoky flavors, the combination of strong smoky flavors and fruity aromas embodies the unique style of Japanese whiskey. This "ROKKOSAN WHISKY" is the single malt whiskey with the strongest smokiness. It cleverly combines the original liquor distilled on Rokko Mountain and the original liquor from the River Avon in Speyside, presenting a unique taste with campfire smoke and botanical flavors.
