Out of stock
World's Best Blended Malt Whisky - World Whiskies Awards 2019
Just 120 of these very rare bottles were available for the whole of Europe and which were bottled in in honour of the Nikka company founder. Made using a combination of matt whisky from Nikka's Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries that have been aged for at least 25 years.
A heady mix of floral aromas, beautifully balanced sherry flavours and subtle peat smoke. Arguably one of the finest whiskies ever produced by the Nikka Whisky Distilling Co.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with copper undertones and a mahogany glow.
Nose
A heady bouquet of florals greets the nose, entwined with rich sherry notes and a subtle hint of peat smoke. Elegant, layered and refined, with perfumed fruit and polished oak lingering.
Palate
Silky, poised on the palate with floral brightness giving way to sherry depth. Rich malt, honeyed sweetness and polished oak unfold, tempered by a whisper of peat smoke. Superb balance drives a long, elegant finish with gentle spice and a soft, warming afterglow.
Finish
Impeccably long and refined, the finish carries sherry sweetness with delicate peat, fading into a soft floral echo and subtle oak spice. It lingers gracefully, inviting another thoughtful sip.
