Nikka Black Aromatic Fruity & Sweet Blended Japanese Whisky (700ml)
Volume: 700ml          ABV: 40%          Age: No Age Statement         Country: Japan
Nikka Black Aromatic is the third and final limited-edition release of Nikka Black in 2017. So what whiskies were used to make this wonderfully fruity and sweet Japanese whisky I hear you ask?  Well, casks full of Miyagikyo malt some of which are 20 years old sherry casks, Nikka’s single malts, coffey blends, coffey malt, and coffey grain whiskies. One of Nikka’s newest blends, made with the expertise built up over the past sixty years.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Muesli with freshly cut fruits and a drizzle of honey.
Palate: The Coffey grain is evident, malty and fresh. Some Sherry sweetness with Christmas cake and toffee.
Finish: Sultana cookies, digestive biscuit and honey.
I like my Nikka from the Barrel on the rocks and I also enjoyed this whisky the same way. A perfect whisky for the hotter humid days. Could also be recommended as a highball.
