Nikka Yoichi [700ml]

RM479.00

Nose: Full-bodied, smooth. A mellow peat softly coats the aromatic palette at first, growing more powerful with time, as smoke, soot and salty notes transcend the initial nose. The aromas then evolve towards candied citrus fruit, black liquorice and spices, and opens up with roots and dried twig aromas. Heady and floral, it grows increasingly complex.

Palate: Firm, powerful. A well-balanced attack gives equal footing to aromas of peat, smoke, spices, fresh fruit and nuts, which it delivers in spades. The mid-palate starts off with chocolate notes, but the peat soon takes the lead once again.

Finish: Long, silky. Extremely mature, it overflows with ripe fruit. The peat starts taking on an herbaceous and malty character, while the salty flavours gives the finish plenty of depth and coastal freshness.

Yoichi Single Malt is a range of single malt expressions from the Yoichi Distillery, Nikka’s first distillery built in 1934. The founder Masataka Taketsuru chose the town of Yoichi in Hokkaido because of the similar environmental conditions to Scotland, where he learned whisky-making.

Yoichi malts are described as bold and strong with refined peaty notes and smokiness brought by the traditional direct coal-fired distillation. Sea breeze from the Ishikari Bay delivers a briny hint to the whisky during maturation.
