Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt – Harmonious and Deep Japanese Whisky Honoring a Legacy
$210
Legacy in a Bottle – Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt Japanese Whisky
🌏 Description
Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt is a refined expression of Japanese whisky blending, named in honor of Masataka Taketsuru — the founding father of Japanese whisky and the visionary behind Nikka. This pure malt combines malts from both Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries, showcasing a seamless harmony of boldness, softness, and complexity.
The nose opens with dried apricots, stewed plums, roasted chestnut, and light cocoa, framed by a subtle thread of smoke. On the palate, you’ll find a deep and silky texture, delivering notes of sherry-soaked raisins, vanilla, gentle malt sweetness, hazelnuts, and baking spice, all unified in a smooth and integrated body. The finish is long and warming, leaving lingering hints of toffee, wood tannin, and distant peat.
As a “pure malt,” this whisky is composed entirely of malt whiskies from multiple distilleries — no grain whisky is used — allowing for a bold yet elegant expression of Nikka’s core distilling philosophies. It is a fitting tribute to Taketsuru’s lifelong pursuit of balance and integrity in every dram. For enthusiasts and newcomers alike, it offers a complete journey through Japanese whisky’s soul.
