Product Description
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. These two unique bottlings showcase the innovative spirit of Nikka.

Sandy G. Verified BuyerMar 7 2021Verified BuyerExcellent, smooth and quite drinkable.
Benjamin Verified BuyerJan 23 2021Verified BuyerFirst time trying a Japanese whisky. It’s good. Smooth with interesting flavors that make it good for sipping.
Pedro Verified BuyerJan 7 2021Verified BuyerIt's my first time trying a Whiskey from the much heralded Japanese Distilleries. I was not impressed and in fact for the price I was disappointed. Hey theirs always a first time but unless I hear a direct referral I would not bother. The Nikka whiskey had hints of Oak casks and the higher alcohol seems to be overpowering any attempt to introduce any complexity just average to my palate.

FAQs
Yes, whiskey is gluten-free, thanks to the distillation process used to make it. The Celiac Disease Foundation concluded that it can safely be considered gluten-free, though it’s still possible that some people with high gluten sensitivity or celiac disease could have a reaction to whiskeys created from certain grains.
Whiskey can include a large number of different distilled spirits made from fermented grain mash — usually cereal grains like rye, barley malt, wheat and corn. The drink undergoes aging in wooden containers, most often oak.
One of the reasons whiskey is so popular is that there’s no single way to enjoy it. There’s the purist route — straight and neat, no mixers, no ice — but what fun is being a purist? You can add water to it, which can enhance certain bottles’ flavors or you can add it with other ingredients to make delicious mixed drinks. It’s the foundation of the Manhattan, the Old Fashioned, the Whiskey Sour and many others.
