Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky

Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky is a distinctive Japanese grain whisky made mainly from corn and distilled at Nikka's Miyagikyo Distillery in traditional Coffey continuous stills imported from Scotland in 1963. These stills are slow and labour-intensive to run, but they retain more of the character of the raw grain, producing a rich and flavourful spirit.

This non-age-statement expression is bottled at 45% ABV. The nose offers vanilla and corn with a bourbon-like sweetness and a subtle herbal hint of chamomile. The palate brings sweet melon and grapefruit with a syrupy richness, balanced by biscuity crunch and fresh vanilla. The finish is lively, with sweet corn notes that linger. It is an excellent sipper neat and a characterful base for cocktails.
