Nikka The Grain 2023 750 ml

Nikka The Grain 2023 is a rare and artfully composed expression that celebrates Nikka’s mastery of grain whisky production. Released as part of the limited-edition “Discovery Series,” this bottling shines a spotlight on the complex, often-overlooked role of grain whiskies within Nikka’s renowned blends.

Crafted from spirits distilled in Coffey stills at the Miyagikyo Distillery, as well as other Nikka facilities, The Grain 2023 offers a deep exploration of texture, sweetness, and balance. The whisky unfolds with aromas of vanilla, toffee, and tropical fruit, evolving into a palate rich with caramelized sugar, banana, and gentle spice. Its mouthfeel is silky and layered, culminating in a long finish that’s equal parts creamy and refined.
