About this product


Yoichi Single Malt is a range of single malt expressions from the Yoichi Distillery, Nikka's first distillery built in 1934.
The founder Masataka Taketsuru chose the town of Yoichi in Hokkaido because of the similar environmental conditions to Scotland, where he learned whisky-making.
This no-age-statement Limited Edition version was released in 2022 that truly captures the authentic style of Yoichi malts, when all age-statements were discontinued.
Vatting various different malt whiskies together, this bottling expresses a delicate balance between peaty, smoky and fruity aromas.
Nose:Fresh, vibrant, quite aromatic, soft. Peaty with notes ofhoney drops.Smoked black tea leaves.
Palate:Warmand punchy initially, yet it calms down quite quickly to reveal a more sooty side of peat to reveal mint, wheatgrass, celery, chocolate malt.
Finish:Short, clean, a more woody astringency appears, along with an abundance of mint and parsleywith subtle smokiness.
