Description

The Nikka Miyagikyo Sherry & Sweet Distillery Exclusive is a single malt Japanese whisky from Nikka's Miyagikyo Distillery, known for its delicate, fruity, and floral character. This expression, part of the 'Nikka Discovery Series' or 'Key Malts series', showcases a sweeter, richer profile due to maturation in sherry casks. It was previously only available at the Miyagikyo distillery in Sendai, making it a limited and sought-after release. Bottled at cask strength, it offers a complex and flavourful experience with prominent sherry influence.
