Nikka Super Rare Old, 43 %

Review #345

This is a blended Japanese whisky from Nikka. The malts are amongst others from Yoichi and Miyagikyo Distillery. Nice fruity and malty in the smell. A very well behaved nose.

Fruity and very sweet at first in the taste. The oak is very elegant and develops great into the finish. Make sure to get it all around in the mouth, and some honey and sweet orange notes appears.

I think the malt content is high in this one, and the grain contributes greatly with the classic sweetness. If you like Japanese whisky, this certainly want let you down! I will give this 86/100 (21//22/22/21).
