Nikka the Grain Whisky 2023

Introducing Nikka The Grain Whisky 2023—a testament to Japanese whisky excellence, where precision and flavor unite.

In this latest release, a diverse array of grain whiskies takes center stage. This includes the use of ‘specially reserved’ aged Coffey grain and Coffey malt, as well as innovative new grain expressions crafted from a blend of corn and rye. This achievement represents the seamless fusion of Nikka’s rich tradition and innovative spirit.

This remarkable whisky is a harmonious blend of two distinctive components: the Saburomaru malt base whisky, primarily distilled in 2018, and the grain base whisky, meticulously aged in-house for over 12 years. It welcomes the senses with a captivating medley of smoky, sandalwood, and milk chocolate notes on the nose.

As you savor each sip, a symphony of flavors unfolds. Smoke, citrus, marron, the gentle bitterness of oak, and the later emergence of the sweetness of grain create a complex and evolving taste profile. The aftertaste is a testament to its depth, where burnt aromas and initial bitterness gradually yield to a lingering and satisfying sweetness.

Whether savored neat to appreciate its depth or used as the foundation for classic whisky cocktails, this release is versatile and suited for those who appreciate genuine whisky character.

With its legacy rooted in Japanese whisky tradition, Nikka The Grain Whisky 2023 is a timeless masterpiece, celebrated by whisky connoisseurs worldwide. Cheers to the world of exceptional whisky.
