Nikka Yoichi 10
Country: Japan
Region:
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 45%
Score: 93 Points
This single malt from Nikka’s Yoichi Distillery near Hokkaido in the mountains of northern Japan has a nose with good maltiness and oak notes, honey, dried apples, and muted spices. The taste is spicy with black pepper, honey, touches of stewed fruits, raisins, and figs. The finish is slightly dry with long, smooth fading spices and a touch of honey. Outstanding! (June, 2014)
