Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt

This is a blended Malt from Nikka's two distilleries Yoichi and Miyagikyo, showing the gentle flavours and fruitiness, but very well balanced introduction to Japanese whisky.

Umiki Japanese Whisky 50cl

Umiki Whisky is renowned as the world’s first ocean‑fused whisky, matured in casks crafted from Japanese pine. Its name, “Umiki,” combines Umi, meaning ocean, and Ki, meaning tree, symbolising its connection to both the sea and the distinctive maturation process. Carefully distilled and aged in local pine barrels, the whisky is finished using desalinated ocean water, lending a smooth, subtly salty‑savoury character. Steeped in the tradition of Japanese distilling, Umiki exemplifies meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. Its balanced flavour profile reveals notes of ripe fruit, delicate sea salt, and gentle oak, capturing the harmony of natural elements and artisanal expertise that define this exceptional whisky.
