This Ben Nevis 25 Year Old Mr Taketsuru’s Single Cask was named for Takeshi Taketsuru. Takeshi was the adopted son of Masataka Taketsuru, who is widely considered to be the founding father of the Japanese whisky industry. 

Masataka Taketsuru founded Nikka in 1934. Nikka now owns brands and distilleries such as Yoichi, Miyagikyo and, of course, Ben Nevis (since 1989). 

Upon Masataka’s death in 1979, his son assumed control of the company. This bottling was made for him. 

The whisky in this bottle was decanted into the cask of 28th September 1990 at Ben Nevis distillery by Takeshi himself. It was then aged for 25 years and bottled in October 2014. Sadly, Takeshi died in 2014 and never got to sample the finished product. 

The series was limited to 235 bottles. This is bottle number 13.

Retail price: Not currently available at retail in the UK

This bottle is being sold by a client who has appointed Mark Littler LTD to act as their agent. The seller is not a VAT registered business and there is no VAT included in the purchase price nor is there any VAT to pay.
