Description

Nikka Black Deep Blend Extra Sweet is a limited edition Japanese Blended Whisky launched in mid-September 2018. It is known for its rich and malty character, with an unexpected sweetness derived from malt whisky sourced from Miyagikyo's first-fill Sherry casks. This additional layer of sweetness harmonizes with the base malt, offering a balanced and evolving palate. It was bottled at 46% ABV and presented in a 700ml square bottle. This limited bottling quickly sold out both in Japan and overseas. [1, 2, 4, 5, 11]
