Nikka Whisky, founded by Masataka Taketsuru, is one of Japan’s most esteemed whisky producers. The Miyagikyo Distillery, established in 1969, is celebrated for its lighter, fruitier style of whiskies, providing a counterpoint to the robust character of Nikka’s Yoichi Distillery. Nose: Smooth and round, the nose takes us into a fruity universe with apple, apricot and whitefleshed fruits. Strong presence of honey, as well as chocolate notes with orange candied peel aromas. Palate: Gourmet. The mouth offers a very interesting duality. On one side, a pastry style marked by vanilla and kouglof and, on the other, the bitterness that is detected with dark chocolate and citrus zest such as tangerine and orange. Finish: In the line of the mouth, the bitterness is counterbalanced by slightly toasted notes that reveal the coexistence of vanilla sweetness and fruity bitterness.
