Description

Nikka Taketsuru 21 Years Old Pure Malt is a rich and complex blended malt whisky named after Masataka Taketsuru, the founder of Nikka and the father of Japanese whisky. It is a blend of carefully selected malt whiskies, aged for at least 21 years, from Nikka's Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries. The whisky is matured in a combination of American oak, sherry, and Japanese Mizunara oak casks, contributing to its depth of flavor and refined elegance. This expression is a tribute to Taketsuru's dedication to craftsmanship and has received numerous international awards.

Nose
Deep and complex, with dark fruit, cocoa, roasted nuts, and a soft Mizunara oak spice. Sweet vanilla, ripe orchard fruits, honey, caramel, and subtle hints of leather also emerge.
Palate
Silky and full-bodied, revealing layers of raisins, toffee, black cherries, cinnamon, and clove. Malt barley is prominent, with notes of caramel candy, toasted oak, dried figs, and a gentle touch of smoke. Peach, caramelized apple, and honeysuckle are also present.
Finish
Long and elegant, with lingering dark chocolate, oak, vanilla, and a whisper of smoke. Coastal notes, ripe fruits (prune, peach), star anise, and green licorice.
