Nikka Miyagikyo Apple Brandy Wood is a single malt from the Miyagikyo distillery, finished in casks that previously held apple brandy. It is bottled at 47% in a 70cl bottle. Nikka made this limited edition of 6,450 bottles to mark the 100th wedding anniversary of its founder Masataka Taketsuru and Rita, who married in Glasgow on 8 January 1920. Apples are tied to their story, as Rita encouraged him to sell apple juice and jam while his first whiskies matured. The nose combines apple, caramel, honey, cinnamon, pepper and oak. The palate adds Calvados and peppery heat. The finish is spicy, with spiced apple toddy, cinnamon and a slight bitterness.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
