Miyagikyo Apple Brandy Wood Finish 2020 / Masataka & Rita
100th Wedding Anniversary
70cl / 47%
Japanese Single Malt Whisky

This single malt whisky was made for Masataka & Rita 100th Wedding Anniversary and called Miyagikyo Apple Brandy Wood Finish 2020

The new series from the Sendai distillery - called Nikka's lowlands distillery - where Yoichi is their highlands distillery - is called Miyagikyou. The old version from the distillery - which is now on its way to extinction - was just called Sendai.

And you could say that the taste has also gone from the simple and straightforward Sendai (which is easy to pronounce) to the more complex and sophisticated Miyagikyou (which makes us curl our tongues).

And make no mistake - here Yoichi has got a worthy partner - as there will be some who think Miyagikyou is better than Yoichi. There are others who can't and won't realize that one of the top 5 distilleries in the world (according to Jim Murray) is getting competition.

But judge for yourself.
