Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky 45.0% Bottle 700mL

Description

Nikka Coffey Grain is predominantly made from corn and distilled in a Coffey Still, which is the world’s first patented continuous still, invented by Mr. Aeneas Coffey in 1830. Masataka Taketsuru valued the feature of this type of still, which retains the flavours of ingredients and also creates a distinctive texture. At Nikka, we imported this Coffey Still from Scotland in 1963. The complex, sweet and mellow flavours of this expression will help you re-discover the beauty of a grain Whisky. NOSE: Superb scents of vanilla creamcombined with sweet fruit - Poached Pear Dried Banana Bourbon-like Vanilla and Corn notes with an herbal hint of Chamomile. PALATE: Sweet, fruity flavours of melon, grapefruit and thick syrup, balanced by crunchy biscuits and fresh vanilla. Silky, almost oily delivery offers semi-sweet Irish pot still-like flavours: butterscotch, muesli, then added pepper to finish. FINISH: The corn notes, sweet and vibrant, last on the finish.
