La distilleria giapponese Nine Leaves rivive con la collezione Unsun Karuta
🍸 Nine Leaves, founded in 2013 in Otsu, Shiga by Yoshiharu Takeuchi, crafted rum using Single Malt Whisky methods. After a decade, it closed in 2023, with La Maison & Velier acquiring its aging rum stock and final white rum batch. Takeuchi, a former Toyota employee, discovered his passion for traditional Japanese rum crafting. Luca Gargano of Velier recognized Nine Leaves in 2014, ensuring its legacy through future releases. Nine Leaves' rums were matured in warehouses and abandoned mines, using various casks for unique profiles. The first Velier releases feature Unsun Karuta card game-inspired labels, aimed at collectors.
