The latest Yoichi single malt will replace both the previous NAS release and the remaining age statement whiskies. The change comes as demand continues to stretch Nikka's aged stock, with this new Yoichi Single Malt (made of of whiskies of various ages) aimed at representing this special distillery's direct-coal-heated, peated yet fruity style.
*UK (excluding Channel Islands) and retail only. Offer from 23 05 2025, while stock lasts.
There’s a lot of fruits in the form of lemon, pears, and white grapes.
Tons and tons of fruits. Kumquat, pineapple, pears and citrus all come out. The citrus is a mix of yuzu and satsuma oranges. A lovely malt note comes through as well. Overall, it has a very heavy worm tub whisky texture.
Medium in length. There’s the slightest trace of acetone here. Some chocolate dust pops in here and again along with orange peels, bergamont, and kumquats.
Amazing, beautiful whisky. The start and mid palette are amazing. This is a really good whisky. I chose this over Hibiki Harmony at a Japanese grocery store.
You can buy this whisky in Japan at the supermarket for half the price. Yoichi in my mind is closer in taste to Scottish whisky than Japanese. Might be on reason why many Japanese drinkers don't like it. I love it and I always keep a bottle around. Best taste for value whisky in Japan.
is very nice *makes tasting noises with mouth"

I live in Japan and, even here, the prices of Japanese whisky are ridiculously high. Japan doesn't tax whisky very much though, so scotch and bourbon are seriously cheap. Therefore, I hesitated a long time before trying Yoichi NAS. Why bother, when I can buy a bottle of Talisker 10 or Glenfarclas 12 for around 3,000 yen (about $28). However, it's actually a very nice whisky. It's rich, slightly peaty and smoky, yet fruity. It also has a nice long drying finish. I'll be keeping a bottle in my collection from now on.
