Nikka Yoichi 10 y.o. Single Malt

Special features: The Nikka Yoichi 10 Year Single Malt is a masterpiece of Japanese whisky craftsmanship, produced at the historic Yoichi distillery on the island of Hokkaido. This distillery was founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru, who is considered a pioneer of Japanese whisky and learned his craft in Scotland. The whisky matures in a combination of bourbon, sherry, and new oak casks, contributing to its complex array of flavors. With a smoky character and a hint of sea breeze, it reflects the rugged coastal landscape in which it is created.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Full and smooth with salty and slightly smoky notes, accompanied by citrus fruits, spices, and a touch of licorice.
• Palate: Balanced and robust with flavors of smoke, fruits, and nuts, underscored by sweet accents.
• Finish: Long and silky with malt, smoke, and fresh notes.
