Whisky NIKKA Miyagikyo Single Malt 45%

The NIKKA brand owns two distilleries in Japan: one is located on the north island Hokkaido near the Yoichi river (the Yoichi distillery), the second one is located on the opposite side, the southern island Kyushu (the Miyagikyo distillery). Masataka Taketsuru, the founder of Nikka and father of Japanese whisky, travelled to Scotland in 1918 to learn the craft from Scottish whisky distillers. After he went back to Japan, he slowly began building today’s NIKKA Japanese whisky empire.
