Nikka from the Barrel Whisky 50cl

Contains single malts from the Yoichi Distillery, perfectly blended with single malts and grain malt from the Miyagikyo Distillery.

Tasting Notes
Colour: dark amber
Nose: subtle woody aromas, sherry, plums and figs
Palate: light, dry sherry notes delicately underpinned by dates, figs, leather and black tea notes, with a hint of sweetness
Finish: medium-length finish, slightly oily, perfectly balanced with woody notes despite its youthful age.

A wonderful example of sherry-based whiskies from Japan, and at an unbeatable price to boot. In a blind tasting, no one would guess its non-Scottish origin.
