JIMSHER ASKANEL is a distinguished Georgian whiskey brand born from an extraordinary fusion of ancient winemaking heritage and Scottish distilling mastery. Founder Jimsher Chkhaidze-Askanel, a visionary Georgian winemaker and merchant, was profoundly inspired by Georgia's legendary 8,000-year viticultural legacy—the oldest in the world. Fifteen years ago, he embarked on a quest to redefine whiskey's identity, traveling to Scotland to immerse himself in traditional production methods. Returning to his homeland, the cradle of wine civilization, he pioneered a unique approach: aging premium whiskey in oak barrels using special techniques derived from Georgia's ancient qvevri winemaking traditions. This innovative process yields JIMSHER ASKANEL—a whiskey of unparalleled character that bridges millennia of craftsmanship, where the soul of Scottish whisky meets the terroir and time-honored wisdom of the Caucasus.
