Tenjaku Japanese Whisky 50cl
AED 45.00
Easy-drinking Japanese whisky with a bright, crowd-pleasing profile, think honeyed cereal, gentle vanilla, and a little baked apple. It’s the kind of bottle that makes highballs taste like you suddenly know what you’re doing. Great for whisky nights that don’t need homework, just good pours and better company!

This is Japanese whisky for when you want flavour, not a lecture. Tenjaku leans bright and approachable with a dessert-spice vibe, but it still keeps enough layered character to stay interesting from first sip to last.
If you’ve ever opened a bottle and thought, “Cool, but what do I do with this?”, this is the fix. Tenjaku plays nicely in cocktails, especially a Japanese Highball, Whisky Sour, or even an Old Fashioned that doesn’t bully the rest of your ingredients.
- Nose: Honey, vanilla, toasted grain, a hint of orchard fruit (apple, pear), and a light cinnamon note.
- Taste: Caramel and malted cereal up front, then baked apple, gentle oak, and a touch of warming spice.
- Finish: Clean and lightly oaky with lingering vanilla and a soft peppery fade.
What makes it worth a spot on your shelf is how flexible it is. It’s friendly enough for newer whisky drinkers, but it won’t bore the people who like picking out little flavour shifts as the glass goes on. Sweet, spiced, and bright, with oak keeping it grounded.
It’s also a solid “house whisky” move for home bartending. One bottle that can handle quick highballs, weekend cocktails, and the random Tuesday pour without feeling like you’re wasting something precious.
Expect a Japanese whisky style that leans into balance, light fruit, and easy spice rather than heavy smoke or aggressive oak. Think more crisp and snackable, less fireplace and leather chair.
Fun Fact: “Tenjaku” is Japanese for a skylark, a small bird known for its bright, clear song, which fits this whisky’s lighter, lift-your-mood style.
