Special features: The Nikka Miyagikyo 10 years is a single malt whisky from Japan, offered in an attractive gift packaging. With an alcohol content of 45% and the classic bottling from Nikka, it reflects the characteristic style of the Miyagikyo distillery. This distillery, known for its fruity and floral whiskies, was founded in 1969 by Masataka Taketsuru. The whisky is not smoky and offers a balanced complexity.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The nose is pure and light, with an elevated floral character. Aromas of lily, broom, fennel, and fruit, complemented by a hint of nut and pine, give it a sweet complexity.
• Palate: On the palate, the whisky shows medium weight and liveliness. It is silky with soft fruits and feels graceful and smooth, supported by balanced oak.
• Finish: The finish is long-lasting and round, with the mild and fruity notes harmoniously fading away.

Distillery/Bottler: The Nikka brand belongs to Nikka Whisky Distilling Co., Ltd., known for its high-quality whiskies. The Miyagikyo distillery, part of this company, has made a name for itself with its fruity and floral single malts. Whisky production is carried out with consideration of traditional methods, including indirect steam distillation at low temperatures, which contributes to the finesse of the flavor.
