About Eigashima Shuzo
Eigashima Shuzo, the manufacturer of the small 500ml bottle of local whisky “Akashi”, was a sake brewer founded in 1888.
The history of whisky production is surprisingly old, and in 1919, the company obtained a license to manufacture whisky.
The introduction of pot stills and other equipment for full-scale whisky production was completed in 1984. Since then, we have been selling low-priced whiskys, but recently we have released a series of new products such as “Akashi” Single Malt 8 Years and Single Malt Eigashima Sherry Cask.
