Nikka Discovery Yoichi Non-Peated Whisky 750ml

*Box not included*
Nikka Discovery Yoichi Non-Peated Whisky – in this Special Edition Nikka transforms its heavily peated Yoichi Single Malt into a much smoother and fruitier product by not peating it.Brewed with only unpeated malts, offering a pleasant surprise that turns Yoichi’s preconceived “peaty” image on its head. Characterised by a delicate balance of bright fruitiness and rich mouthfeel, along with its distinctive smokiness generated by charcoal distillation. Tasting Notes:Nose: Refined and balanced. Staying close to its foundations of malted barley, the first nose also reveals aromas of fruit and acacia honey. Becoming increasingly exotic, it then develops a nobly spicy and herbaceous register. Little by little, medicinal notes delicately cover the aromatic palette.Palate: Taut and lively. Citrus fruits initially bring a lot of energy to the first impression in the mouth. This lively start is then followed by a beautiful vanilla and almost roasted sequence, the richness of which highlights the incredible balance of sweet and savoury flavours. A particularly mouth-watering bitterness completes the picture.Finish: Long and rich. Like the first nose, the start of the finish focuses on malted barley. Aniseed, vegetal and creamy flavours gradually spread across the sides of the palate. On the retronasal olfaction, a handful of nuts and juicy fruits bring pleasing length to the very end of the palate. The empty glass is malty and spicy.
