Nikka Whisky From The Barrel Japanese Whisky 500ml

Described as a complex blended whisky bottled at 51.4% ABV, the blended spirit is returned to used casks for several additional months prior to bottling, enhancing its richness and depth of flavour.

The history and evolution of the Japanese whisky scene can be traced back to one man, Masataka Taketsuru, widely regarded as the father of Japanese whisky. Taketsuru travelled from Japan to Scotland to learn the craft from established distillers, and later helped create Japan’s first whisky at the Yamazaki distillery, before founding the premium whisky house of Nikka in 1934. This distinctive bottling of From the Barrel is an impressive blend of carefully selected malt and grain whiskies, which are married together and then returned to cask to harmonise further before bottling.
