Product Description

Nikka Coffey Malt Whisky is an exceptional and rare expression from Japan’s renowned Nikka Distillery. While it’s made entirely from malted barley, its unique production method sets it apart from traditional single malts. Distilled in the Coffey stills—typically used for grain whisky production—this whisky offers a rich and smooth texture that is both complex and satisfying.

The decision to use Coffey stills for a malt whisky is unconventional, yet it results in a remarkably unique spirit. The Nikka Coffey Malt has a deep, full-bodied flavour profile with rich oaky notes and an intriguing balance of sweetness and spice. The whisky opens with aromas of ripe fruit, hints of honey, and subtle floral undertones, leading to a palate that reveals layers of malted barley, vanilla, and a gentle oakiness. The finish is long and smooth, with a touch of warming spice and a slight nuttiness that lingers.

Unlike traditional single malts, the Coffey Malt’s distillation method gives it a soft, velvety mouthfeel and a refined complexity, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a whisky that is both innovative and accessible. This rare bottling is a wonderful example of Nikka’s commitment to craftsmanship and creativity, offering whisky enthusiasts a chance to experience something truly unique in the world of Japanese whisky.
