A Japanese single malt from Nikka's Miyagikyo Distillery in Miyagi Prefecture, bottled at 45% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Masataka Taketsuru built the distillery in 1969 as his second site, in a valley where the Nikkawa and Hirose rivers meet. It is made entirely from malted barley, a blend of lightly peated and unpeated, and distilled in steam-heated copper pot stills. The nose offers green apple, ripe pear, honeyed malt and a faint wisp of peat smoke. The palate is soft and honeyed, with orchard fruit, a touch of orange, clove and black pepper. The finish is medium, with light smoky oak and clean, slightly sweet malt.

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.
