Nikka Taketsuru 21 Year Old is an outstanding dram, so much so that it was awarded World's Best Blended Malt Whisky in the World Whiskies Awards 2010. This one has lots of lovely coffee and chocolate notes on the palate, and it is just divine.
While maintaining the boldness of traditional Yoichi malt whisky, this blended whisky is distinguished by its soft palate. It offers whisky lovers a simple introduction to the superior quality of Yoichi malt whisky. This is a rare blended whisky, using malt whiskies distilled in 2000 and bottled in 2009 at cask strength.
