Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt whisky 700ml

Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt Whisky is a masterful tribute to Masataka Taketsuru, the visionary who introduced Japanese whisky to the world.

This blended malt is a significant testament to his legacy, embodying the harmonious balance of craftsmanship and nature.

Pouring a beautiful amber hue, Nikka Taketsuru captivates the senses from the first whiff. Its nose is rich and inviting, offering a delightful bouquet of spices intertwined with sherry notes.
