Nikka from the Barrel (500 ml)

Product Info

Nikka From The Barrel (51,4% ABV) je bogata mješavina malt i žitnih viskija iz Yoichi i Miyagikyo destilerija, usklađena jedinstvenim procesom „spajanja“ u buretu. Na nosu se otvara intenzivnom slatkoćom – vanila, smeđi šećer, karamela, uz nagovještaje meda, kajsije i grožđica – vođeno začinima iz hrasta i blagim cvjetnim tonom. Na nepcu je punog tijela i snažan, sa raskošnim notama karamele, toffee-a, zimskih začina i tamnog voća, uz izraženu, uljastu teksturu. Suptilne nijanse kafe, kože, đumbira i blagog dima se pojavljuju, dok kap vode može otkriti ton mente ili kole. Završetak je dug, topao i zadovoljavajući, sa postojanim začinima, zemljanim podtonovima i fino uravnoteženim uticajem hrasta. Ovo izdanje spaja snagu i profinjenost, ostajući izuzetno izražajno na svojoj jačini.

Nikka From The Barrel (51.4% ABV) is a densely layered blend of malt and grain whiskies from Yoichi and Miyagikyo, harmonized through a unique "marriage" process in cask. On the nose, it opens with rich sweetness—vanilla, brown sugar, toffee, and hints of honey, apricot, and raisin—led by oak spice and a floral lift. The palate is full-bodied and punchy, with luscious notes of caramel, toffee, winter spices, and dark fruit, framed by a bold, oily mouthfeel. Subtle nuances of coffee, leather, ginger, and delicate smoke emerge, while a touch of mint or cola may arise with a drop of water. The finish is long, warm, and satisfying, offering lingering spice, earthy undertones, and finely balanced oak influence. This expression blends boldness with refinement and remains remarkably expressive at its strength.
