Nikka Yoichi Single Malt Japanese Whisky - 70cl

$110.00 SGD – $306.00 SGD

The bold, characterful soul of Nikka β€” Yoichi Single Malt is the flagship expression from Japan's most dramatically situated distillery, built in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru on the rugged, sea-battered coast of Hokkaido after a meticulous search for a Japanese location that most closely resembled the Scottish Highlands where he had trained. He found it at Yoichi β€” cool, maritime, and surrounded by mountains β€” and built a distillery so faithful to Scottish tradition that it remains one of the last anywhere in the world to use direct coal-fire distillation, a labour-intensive method long abandoned by the Scots themselves, producing a spirit of remarkable richness, oily body, and subtle coastal smokiness that is instantly and unmistakably Yoichi in character.

A vatting of malt whiskies of various ages, distilled from both peated and unpeated barley and matured in American oak, sherry, and re-charred casks, the Yoichi Single Malt perfectly captures the distillery's defining duality β€” the peat and brine of its Hokkaido coastal home balanced by vivid tropical fruit, honey, and a creamy pot still richness. and meeting all criteria of Japanese whisky as defined by the Japan Spirits & Liqueur Makers Association, this is the essential introduction to Nikka's bolder, more assertive side.

Description

TASTING NOTES

NOSE

Smoke, sea brine, and nutmeg open first, followed by candied orange, pear, lemon zest, vanilla, fresh cut flowers, and a rich coastal salinity β€” bold, complex, and immediately captivating.

PALATE

Full-bodied and creamy with heathery smokiness, dried fruits, walnuts, dark chocolate, and clove β€” citrus peel, cedar, and oak threading through alongside a gentle earthy peat and a pleasant briny warmth from the sea breeze influence.

FINISH

Long, smooth, and deeply rewarding β€” fruit and herbal smoke give way to menthol, leather, eucalyptus, and a slowly fading brine β€” one of the most characterful finishes in Japanese single malt.

ABV: 45% ABV
