Nikka Whisky Taketsuru 17-Year Pure Malt

'The strength of this whisky lies in the way the subtle aroma of peat builds up over time,' says world-renowned British whisky critic Jim Murray in appreciation of Taketsuru 17 Years Old. Its mellow, well-rounded nose and palate are sure to please. A combination of whisky from both Nikka distilleries: Yoichi & Miyagikyo. Matured primarily in sherry butts along with bourbon barrels. Named after Masataka Taketsuru, who is considered to be the father of Japanese whisky. The most award-winning expression in the Taketsuru range of whiskies, and one of the most awarded expressions of Japanese whisky.
