Nikka Coffey Malt 70cl

Product Information

A release of grain whisky from Japan's Nikka, produced mainly from corn using one of their continuous Coffey stills. The whisky is then matured in a combination of new American oak and ex-bourbon casks, which imparts notes of vanilla, honey, and oak. Crafted at the Nikka Whisky Distilling Company, this whisky is made using 100% malted barley and distilled in a Coffey still, resulting in a spirit with a silky texture and complex flavours.

I can understand the lack of education about this from the big brands, but I’m surprised and annoyed that the independent or “independent” whisky Youtubers and bloggers aren’t educating their fans on important pre-barrel aging steps such as fermentation, types of stills, and condensers. Your summary echoes my thoughts: It does nothing wrong, overall flavorful and pleasant, just not complex. Aside from being small, how are enthusiasts going to know why new distilleries can make a better whisky than the bigger ones despite just bottling young whisky? Somewhere style wise between Irish pot still (Redbreast) and Aged Bourbon, a thick and luxurious Malt with a difference.There are so many blended whiskies from all over the world that I find unpleasant because of the ethanol (read: vodka-like) bitterness that pops out front or mars the finish.
