  Nikka Coffey Grain Japanese Whisky 70 cl 45%

  Item no.: 22227865403-17

  The name Coffey doesn't refer to coffee, but to inventor Aeneas Coffey, whose 1830 column still design is still running at Nikka's Miyagikyo Distillery today.

  Expert Description

  Nikka Coffey Grain is a Japanese Whisky distilled on an original Coffey column still and bottled at 45%.

  While most grain whisky is used as filler in blends, Coffey Grain is built to stand on its own. Nikka acquired its two Coffey stills in 1963 and 1999 and is today one of very few distilleries in the world still using this older distillation technique to produce a standalone, fully mature grain whisky.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Sweet corn and tropical fruit like pineapple and banana, with a light vanilla note.

  Palate

  Creamy and sweet with coconut, caramel and a touch of spiced oak.

  Finish

  Medium length, soft and sweet, with a last note of tropical fruit.

  Investment perspective

  A peated Miyagikyo is a rarity, as the distillery normally produces in a softer style, making Discovery releases like this particularly attractive to collectors of Japanese whisky.

  Did You Know?

  Miyagikyo was originally built to complement Yoichi's powerful style with something softer - peating Miyagikyo therefore turns the distillery's basic purpose on its head.

  Item no.: 2278556393-963

  Expert Description

  Nikka Miyagikyo 10 Year (Sendai) is a Single Malt Japanese Whisky, bottled at 45%.

  Miyagikyo Distillery was founded in 1969 by Masataka Taketsuru as Nikka's second distillery, called the "lowland distillery" in contrast to the peated "highland distillery" Yoichi.

  Expert Description

  Nikka Miyagikyo 10 Year is a Single Malt Japanese Whisky, bottled at 45%.

  Miyagikyo Distillery was founded in 1969 by Masataka Taketsuru as Nikka's second distillery, this time with a milder, more floral purpose than the peated Yoichi. Its location by the Nikkawa and Hirose rivers gives it a humid microclimate that encourages a softer maturation.

  The whisky comes from Miyagikyo Distillery, founded in 1969 by Nikka founder Masataka Taketsuru in a spot he himself described as resembling Scotland's Speyside.

  Nikka Yoichi 15 years old Single Malt Japanese Whisky 70 cl 45%

  Item no.: 22227865403-6

  Yoichi sits where the Japan Sea meets the coast, and the salty air has shaped the whisky for fifteen years.

  Expert Description

  Nikka Yoichi 15 Year is a Single Malt Japanese Whisky, bottled at 45%.

  Yoichi Distillery was founded by Masataka Taketsuru in 1934 on Hokkaido's west coast, the place he found most similar to the Scottish highlands where he learned the craft of whisky. The distillery still uses direct coal firing of its pot stills, a rare and demanding method that gives the whisky its characteristic power and smokiness.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Peated smoke, sea salt and ripe dark fruits.

  Palate

  Powerful with smoke, sherry and a hint of liquorice.

  Finish

  Long and warm with lingering smoke and spice.

  Nikka Yoichi Single Malt Japanese Whisky 70 cl 45%

  Item no.: 22227865403-340

  Peaty smoke meets ripe apples and a touch of sea spray.

  Palate

  Powerful and full-bodied with smoke, caramel and a fine maritime spice.

  Finish

  Long and smoky, with a last note of dried fruit.

  The Blend of Nikka Maltbase Japanese Whisky 66 cl 45%

  Item no.: 22227865403-339

  The name doesn't lie: this blend carries a notably higher malt content than most blended whiskies, giving it a body closer to a single malt.

  Expert Description

  The Blend of Nikka Maltbase is a Japanese Whisky, bottled at 45%.

  As the name suggests, the blend has an unusually high proportion of malt whisky from Nikka's Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries, topped up with a smaller share of grain whisky. That delivers a deeper, more complex flavour than many other Japanese blends while keeping a round, approachable character.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dried fruit and caramel with a touch of smoke and spiced oak.

  Palate

  Full-bodied and round with honey, dark chocolate and a fine spice.

  Finish

  Long and warm, with a last note of dried apricot.
