Miyagikyo Aromatic Yeast is the unpeated Miyagikyo release in the second Nikka Discovery series, from 2022. It is a limited single malt bottled at 47%, built around selected yeasts chosen to bring out fine fruity aromas, which puts fermentation at the centre of the edition. It has a pronounced malty base, with green, floral, creamy and light fruit character. The nose offers lavender, marshmallow, liquorice and malted barley, later pear, peach, apricot and vanilla. On the palate there are barley field, brioche, pear and white peach, with acacia honey. The finish is long and silky, with sage, chamomile and a trace of cigar smoke.

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.
