Description

The Nikka Nine Decades is a rare, limited edition blended whisky released to celebrate Nikka's 90th anniversary in 2024. This 'World Blended Whisky' is a harmonious blend of over 50 distinct whisky batches, including malt and grain components from Nikka's six distilleries (Yoichi, Miyagikyo, Nishinomiya, Moji, Satsumatsukasa, and Ben Nevis in Scotland) spanning nine decades, from the 1940s to the 2020s. It incorporates the oldest malt whisky reserves from Yoichi and Miyagikyo. The whisky is non-chill filtered and bottled at 48% ABV. It comes in a stunning presentation, housed in a bottle crafted using the traditional 'Edo-bori' glass carving method and presented in an elegant wooden box with mirrored interiors.

Allocation
Limited allocation for US (400 bottles) and Europe (964 bottles).
Nose
A rich apple pie and raisin sweetness with toasty barrel-ageing notes, gentle smokiness, and the nostalgic scent of antique furniture. Complex and layered aromas give the impression of standing in the warehouse where the whisky has peacefully slumbered.
Palate
Mellow oak with profound depth, structuring spicy cinnamon, roasted nuts, and rich dark chocolate aromas. A subtle bitterness from the peat is balanced by sweet apricot jam and maple syrup, with an overall warmth.
Finish
Gentle peat is enveloped by the full body, with sweet and sour notes introducing a pleasant bitterness on a very long finish.
