Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt
Taketsuru Pure Malt is a range of blended malt whiskies named in honor of Masataka Taketsuru, the founder of Nikka and father of Japanese whisky. These whiskies highlight the complexity and preciseness of blending. One of Nikka’s signature products to showcase our way of blending and perfecting flavors. Gentle malt flavor, fruitiness and extremely well-balanced taste make it a perfect entry point into the world of Nikka.
Nikka Coffey Grain
Coffey Grain is an original single grain whiskey, mostly distilled from corn, in a Coffey still. It becomes even more unique in the sense that it has mostly maize as in the past, while most modern whiskeys are derived from wheat. The corn imparts to the whiskey with a rich and rounded texture, and intense aromas. This grain whiskey is today an essential component of the Nikka blends. The distillation process is continuous, whereas in the stills used for the production of Single Malts they require two separate distillations. Nikka owns two Coffey stills at her Miyagikyo distillery for the production of her grain whiskeys. Imported from Scotland in 1963, these old stills produce a very round whiskey with a distinctive character that defines the signature Nikka blends. Nice golden color. Nose fresh and seductive, reveals ripe pear, cherry and exotic fruit aromas. Citrus notes of grapefruit and lemon emerge, slowly giving way to the subtler floral aromas. After breathing, the aromas of pastries, coconut and bourboun-vanilla, with notes of mint and a hint of musk, stand out. Juicy and pleasant palate, what promises in the nose lies on the palate. Intense ripe fruit with note of rum, banana and caramel. Complexity develops in the notes of licorice and star anise. Over time develops ripe pear aromas and the end of the mouth results in a bittersweet combination with the bourbon-vanilla to impart a slight acidity.
Komasa Komikan
The elegant expressions of Komasa Jyozo Distillery are the pride of Japan! With its new Gin Komasa line, the brand has focused on regional botanicals (such as green tea and Sakurajima komikan, the world's smallest mandarin) to offer unprecedented new flavors that ooze freshness. Developed and blended by a specialized team of artisanal distillers, producing two spectacular gins that are destined to become a myth. Every gin in the Komasa line is made with a crucial ingredient from Japan's heritage: the world's smallest mandarin (Sakurajima komikan) or green tea. Two brand new flavors begging to be discovered. Komikan is a new interpretation of the easy gin drink that will appeal to a wide audience. A shochu base and juniper alcohol, supplemented with Sakurajima Komikan and cypress bark.
