Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt whisky (Old) 700ml

This is a blended malt named in honor of Masataka Taketsuru, the father of Japanese whisky. He is the first Japanese who mastered whisky-making in Scotland and produced the genuine whisky in Japan. Masataka learned that the natural resources surrounding a distillery were essential for quality whisky. Based on his thought, he selected two places, Yoichi and Miyagikyo, and built two distilleries there. Its gentle malt flavor, fruitiness and extremely well-balanced taste make it a perfect entry point into the world of Nikka.

Tasting Notes

 A rich, spicy and sherried nose. Sweet and honeyed with vanilla notes coming through.

Dry and characterful with a lovely smoky undertone. The finish is warm with a short, sharp and bitter finish.
