Description
Yoichi malts are described as bold and strong with refined peaty notes and smokiness brought by the traditional direct coal-fired distillation. Sea breeze from the Ishikari Bay delivers a briny hint to the whisky during maturation.
This is a single malt from Nikka's first distillery established in 1934. The founder Masataka Taketsuru chose Yoichi i Hokkaido because of the similar environmental conditions to Scotland, where he learned whisky-making. Along with Yoichi's original smokiness, this 10-year-old version offers round maturity generated over years integrated with distinctive peaty, well-balanced woody and delicate herbaceous notes.
