Yoichi 12 Year Old Woody and Vanillic 50cl

An age stated release from Nikka as part of their range exploring the flavour profiles that make up the flagship products. This one is Woody & Vanillic and produced at Yoichi Japanese distillery.

Miyagikyo was built in 1969 by the Nikka Whisky company. Nikka was founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru, a former Suntory employee who had studied at the University of Glasgow, and later trained as a blender at the now lost Hazelburn distillery in Campbeltown. Miyagikyo is primarily a malt distillery, but now also produces Nikka’s grain whisky after it moved the Nishinomaya coffey stills there in the 1999.
