Tasting Notes

Nose: Earthy and chocolately, with herbaceous notes and peatsmoke, as well as sweet fruit.


Palate: A winning combo of dark chocolate and dark berry fruit, along with toffee and vanilla notes, bolstered by some well-defined peat.


Finish: Rich and strong, the smoke and spice lasting longest.


Comment: Of Nikka’s three Pure Malt series, this is the ideal midpoint. The Red is all about the fruit; the White all about the peat; the Black is, perhaps, the best of both worlds.
