ZEMON-Distilled Malt Meets Peated Scotch
The seventh release, launched on 25 March 2025, uses Saburomaru heavily peated malt distilled in the cast pot still ZEMON. The blend combines that spirit with peated Scotch malt. This is a cross-origin blended malt, rather than a single malt or an entirely Japan-distilled whisky.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the seventh batch made entirely from Japanese whisky?
No. Its back label lists UK-produced and Japan-produced malt whisky, and the producer identifies Saburomaru and peated Scotch malt components.
Is this a single malt whisky?
No. It is labelled blended malt whisky, made using malt whiskies from more than one distillery.
Does 7th Batch mean seven years old?
No. It identifies the seventh batch in the series. No numerical age statement appears on the photographed labels.
Why might the whisky look cloudy or contain sediment?
The back label states that it is not chill-filtered to preserve its natural character. It explains that whisky components may cause cloudiness or sediment without affecting quality.
How can I serve it?
Japanese retailer Tamaniwa suggests serving it over ice or in a highball. You can also try a small pour with water added gradually to find your preferred dilution.
