Nikka operates two Coffey stills (named after its inventor, Aeneas Coffey) within the Miyagikyo distillery, for the elaboration of its grain whiskies. Imported from Scotland in 1963, these old stills yield a distillate, with more flavour and depth than modern column stills, imparting a distinct character that defines the house blends. For those who like grain whisky, this is excellent stuff!
