“My future son in law produced this to state his intentions. I loved it at first dram. Still warming up to the man who wants to take my daughter! But since, I’ve sought it out and found two more hard-to-find bottles. Worth it! ”

Description
Nikka Whisky From The Barrel was first launched in 1985 and has been stealing hearts ever since. Built from a marriage of malt and grain whiskies, largely drawn from Nikka’s Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries, it is bottled at a forthright 51.4% ABV because anything less would miss the point. The compact, rectangular bottle reflects its concept, "a small block of whisky", but this rich, oily expression has always punched above its size.
This product does not meet all the criteria of "Japanese whisky" defined by the Japan Spirits & Liqueur Makers Association. You can read more on our blog.

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.
