The Nagahama Roman Blended Whisky is a fine bottling from the young but already renowned Nagahama Distillery, which has carved out a firm place for itself in the world of Japanese whisky through passion and craftsmanship. The small distillery is picturesquely situated on the shores of Lake Biwa in Shiga Prefecture and is known for its limited-edition batches, creative cask maturation and high-quality blends with a distinctly Japanese character.

In Japanese, the name ‘Roman’ symbolises ‘dream’, ‘story’ or ‘journey’ – fitting for the philosophy behind this bottling, which brings together various influences and whisky components to create a harmonious narrative. The Nagahama Roman Blended Whisky combines malts distilled in-house at the Nagahama Distillery with selected imported grain whiskies, resulting in a smooth, balanced profile. It is bottled at 43 % ABV, which emphasises its approachability without compromising on expressiveness.
