Nikka from the Barrel is a blend of single malts from the Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries and is a unique grain whisky. First released in 1985, it is a marriage from a selection of different oak casks to create a rich harmony of distinct flavours.
The Japanese whisky is bottled directly from the cask at close to cask strength and possesses a distinctive personality characterised by solidity, depth of taste and a richly expanding aroma.
This tasting set contains a bottle of Nikka from the Barrel Whisky and two glasses for sipping by the fireside this winter.
