Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt is a Japanese whisky from The Nikka Whisky Distilling, in a 70cl bottle at 43% ABV. It shows a bright, lively gold with a copper tinge. The character leans towards the Miyagikyo style, with winey, chocolatey depth, while a touch of tobacco and smoke recalls Yoichi distillates. The nose combines ripe peach and plum with banana, a little lemon, dark chocolate, vanilla and liquorice. The palate is gentle and creamy, with chocolate, a coffee-with-milk richness, some astringency and pepper. The finish is long and glycerine-smooth, with peppery warmth and a recollection of sherry casks.

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.
