Nikka Yoichi Peaty & Salty Distillery Exclusive Japanese Whisky
Out of stock
Nikka Yoichi Peaty & Salty is a distillery-exclusive Japanese single malt bottled at 55% ABV, created to highlight the smokier, more coastal side of Yoichi’s house style. Sold exclusively at the Yoichi distillery in Hokkaido, it leans into the qualities the distillery is best known for, with peat smoke, maritime salinity and a weightier, more robust character than many other Japanese single malts.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold highlights, a sunlit maritime glow that hints at peat smoke.
Nose
Bold peat smoke unfurls with coastal brine and sea spray, delivering iodine-touched salt, ash and coal-dark undertones. A resinous maritime heft frames a subtle citrus zest, coalescing into a robust, sun-warmed aroma that speaks of Yoichi’s smoky, saline terroir.
Palate
Powerful, peat-driven on the palate, a wave of coastal salinity and mineral brine frames the smoke. At 55% ABV the body is bold and mouth-coating, with sun-warmed malt, subtle iodine, and a long, savory ash-spice finish that lingers with maritime character.
Finish
Long and maritime, the finish leads with briny sea spray and peat smoke that coat the palate. It settles into mineral salinity with a whisper of iodine, then lingers with warm peppery spice and a dusky, smoky sweetness that fades to a dry, coastal echo.
