The 25 year old edition of Nikka's Taketsuru blended malt whisky is a very rare sight. The Taketsuru expression was named in honour of the company's founder, Masataka Taketsuru, made with malt whiskies from the Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries. The well-aged whiskies within this brilliant blended malt display a fantastic balance of Sherried goodness, floral elegance and a subtle hint of peat.

Was in Niigata last New Years. The hotel bar had a bottle. 4620 yen a shot-outstanding whisky - was forced to have two just to be sure!
I was lucky enough to purchase this bottle on a visit to Tokyo. It was the last bottle left. I have not opened it, but the color is exquisite. And by licking the glass, I can already tell this will be a grand pour on my death bed.
