Tasting Notes:
Nose: Smoky peat aromas paired with a light salty sea breeze and subtle fruit notes.
Palate: Full-bodied and oily with a pleasant spiciness as well as hints of malt and gentle peat smoke.
Finish: Lasting and warm with a fine smoky note that unfolds elegantly.
Distillery/Bottler: The Yoichi Distillery was founded in 1934 and is located near the Sea of Japan. This location allows for the characteristic salty sea air that is reflected in the whisky. Nikka, founded by Masataka Taketsuru, a pioneer of Japanese whisky production, follows a philosophy of combining traditional Scottish production methods with local characteristics. In addition to Yoichi, Nikka also operates the Miyagikyo Distillery, which is distinguished by a milder climate and steam-heated stills.
