Nikka (NIKKA)

25 Years Old Taketsuru Pure Malt Japanese Whisky 2012 Edition 700mL

Masataka Taketsuru's passion took him to Scotland to learn the art of distilling. Returning to Japan, the father of Japanese whisky founded Japan's first malt distillery and carefully created a whisky with the very finest fragrance, body, and taste.
The Nikka Taketsuru 25 is a blend of the two Nikka single malts and combines the strong character of Yoichi with the elegance and precision of Miyagikyo.
The Nikka Taketsuru 25 year old was bottled in 2012 and represents the epitome of Nikka’s expertise in the art of whisky making.
A true work of art, this whisky is a remarkable tribute to Masataka Taketsuru – the founding father of Nikka.
If you want to experience the very best by Nikka then this is for you. It also comes with a beautiful box, so there is no harm in just keeping it as a prized part of your collection.
