Whisky Reviews

Nikka Yoichi 1980's

 

 

I had an opportunity to taste this Yoichi 1980’s with the courtesy of The 1980’s bar a few nights ago. This is a limited distillery only release that bottled of an average of 30 year malt from Yoichi.

Nose: Sulferic, salty malt with a wood smoke patina finished with bright sherry and blackberry.

Taste: Warm, round, sweet malt with just the right amount of peat smoke balanced by a sea salt briskness. A touch of water brings out more delicate shades of dried apricot and Fuji apple. Suddenly a blast of creosote hits, creating a BBQ glaze flavoring.

Finish: Medium long with a lasting sweetness with a gentle kiss of peat.
