Nikka Whisky's first distillery and guardian of their tradition, Yoichi is located on the coast of Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan. Crafted using methods from the past, such as direct coal heating, the Yoichi single malt truly captures the authentic character of its exceptional location, with its refined coastal and peat notes. A subtle blend of Yoichi casks of various ages, of which a large portion was matured in ex-sherry casks, the perfect representative of Nikka's historic single malt expresses a delicate balance between smoky, fruity and floral aromas.
