Description

Nikka Super Nikka, a classic Japanese blended whisky, was first launched in 1962 as a tribute to Masataka Taketsuru's wife, Rita. This particular expression is presented in a beautiful Arita ceramic decanter adorned with a floral pattern, making it a collector's item. The blend offers a subtle balance of fruitiness, gentle peatiness, and notes of old sherry barrels, combining whiskies from Nikka's Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries.
