NIKKA MIYAGIKYO - RICH & FRUITY, a newer single malt release from Nikka with strong references to fruitier and richer style from this light Japanese distillery. This impressive whisky is even more fruity than your average bottle. If you like your whisky fruity and rich, then this is the bottle you have been looking for!
One of three in the distillery key malt series- See "Malty and Soft" and "Sherry and Sweet". This single malt is only released at the Distillery in Sendai, Japan. It's a rare cask release with only a yearly release of the series of single malts.
The Miyagiko is Nikka's second distillery, having opened in Sendai in 1969. Miyagiko's different natural environment, and the use of steam heat in distillation, as opposed to coal, results in a malt whisky with a different character from that of Yoichi. Consequently, whiskies from this distillery are known to be distinctively mild and fruit compared to the more powerful taste of Yoichi.
