'Inuyasha' is a Japanese adventure fantasy manga by Rumiko Takahashi, a timeless masterpiece loved across generations.

The story follows Kagome Higurashi, a girl who time-slips from modern times to the Sengoku period, embarking on a journey with the half-demon boy Inuyasha and their companions to find the powerful 'Shikon Jewel'. It depicts fierce battles against numerous enemies, encounters with new friends, and a love triangle between Kagome, Inuyasha, and his former love, Kikyo. It is a grand tale woven with love and adventure.

For this 'Inuyasha' label, Hideo Yamaoka has selected Tomatin 2012.

It offers a sweet, flowery, and fruity aroma, subtly layered with nuances of cheese and yeast. The taste is sweet and spicy, with a big body accompanied by a slightly waxy and oily texture. Adding water makes it smoother and easier to drink, a truly distinctive bottle.

Immerse yourself in the world of 'Inuyasha' and savor this whisky slowly.

The idea of manga x whisky was born from Hideo Yamaoka, a globally renowned whisky collector and former manga editor at Shogakukan, who wanted "many people to know the diverse charms of whisky." In 2017, a project was launched by Shogakukan-Shueisha Productions (ShoPro) and Hideo Yamaoka to attach labels featuring manga, anime, art, etc., that would delight everyone, to the finest whiskies they selected. This project continues to this day.

Hideo Yamaoka tastes and selects casks of Scotch and Japanese whisky. They explore the diversity of whisky in various forms.
