About this bottle

Nikka's Miyagikyo single malt whisky range includes this 10 Year expression, along with 12 and 15 Year bottlings. All are produced and aged at the Miyagikyo distillery, located west of Sendai, Japan, which serves as the counterpart to Nikka Whisky's original Yoichi distillery. The Miyagikyo distillery uses steam heating in its distillation process to impart unique characteristics to the malt.

Don Hinds 3.3

The aroma is a bit spicy and has notes of oak. It's sweet with caramel undertones and a hint of citrus.

Alma Christenson 3.0
