NIKKA from the barrel Whisky 51,4% - 50cl

Nippon, Japan. Usually, one would not connect this location with the craft of making whiskey. But first experiments with distilling whiskies in Japan can be traced back into the 1870s! In recent years, Japanese whiskies have become more and more popular across the globe, especially in Europe.

Nikka From The Barrel Blended Whisky is a popular representative for the Japanese art of blending whisky. The Nikka brand owns two distilleries in Japan: one is located on the north island Hokkaido near the Yoichi river, the second one is located on the opposite side, the southern island Kyushu. To create Nikka From The Barrel Blended Whisky, the distillers use many different whiskies from both locations. The blend then rests in oak casks for three to six months.

Due to its unique blending technique and variety of whiskies used for this blend, Nikka From The Barrel Blended Whisky offers various aromas: cloves, cinnamon, raspberry, oranges, walnuts and a hint of minty sherry.

Nikka From The Barrel Blended Whisky was awarded gold and a trophy at the "International Spirit Challenge 2015" in the category best international blend.

A very tasteful, minimalistic bottle and label design remind of a luxurious perfume, rather than whisky. This bottle comes with a box, making this whisky the ideal present for whisky lovers.
