    Nikka Whisky From The Barrel

    The award-winning Nikka Whisky From The Barrel blend is absolutely full of flavour. Bottled at 51.4% ABV. The blend combines both single malt and grain whisky, the majority of which comes from from the Miyagikyo and Yoichi distilleries. A huge depth of flavour in this stunning whisky from Japan. We can't recommend this enough.

    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    Nose

    Medium-body with good balance. There are notes of cut flowers and fresh fruits, spice, and a little oak.

    Palate

    Full-bodied and punchy. There is plenty of winter spice and toffee, a little caramel and vanilla, and a good mouthful of fruit.

    Finish

    Long, warming and fruity with a little oaken spice.

    Excellent all round

    Superb Japanese blend. Can see it being polarising due to the 51.4% ABV but I thoroughly enjoyed it neat. Incredibly smooth. At this price, there isn’t another Japanese whisky that comes close.

    Almost great.

    Rich, warm, full body, complex & utterly satisfying. why only 4 stars then? it would have been 5 stars if there was no grain whisky in it. the slight acetone note takes away 1 star imo. If this was a malt whisky only it would be a perfect dram, 5 stars no doubt.

    Very sweet and moreish

    Not much on the nose to give an indication on the taste of this one, cut flowers and slight grassy scent. Very sweet on the tongue, brown sugar going to a more creamy butterscotch then to a punchy light burnt sugar sweetness with medium finish. Very sweet and moreish easily recognisable.

    Just a tad disappointing.

    Ok but somewhat disappointing. The nose is disappointing. Oak and vanilla but nothing exceptional. The palate is spicy with vanilla and fruit cake in abundance leading to a somewhat spicy finish which lingers a while but then fades. A pleasant enough whiskey but not exceptional..

    ok but not great

    it's fine, but it's not worth the hype- better whisky for the price point (which aren't coloured and chill filtered)
