Whisky Days Old Super 70cl - Nikka is a refined example of Japanese mastery in distillation and the art of aging. Coming from one of the most famous distilleries in Japan, this whisky represents a balanced fusion between Scottish tradition and Japanese sensibility, reflecting a unique territory where attention to detail is a true cult.

Days Old Super is obtained from a careful selection of malted barley and cereals, subjected to a long maturation in oak barrels that impart complexity and softness to the aromatic profile. On the nose, it releases hints of vanilla, light smoky hints, and a delicate touch of dried fruit, which anticipate a velvety, harmonious, and surprisingly persistent sip. The balance between sweetness and spicy notes makes it ideal for those seeking a pleasant and engaging tasting experience.

Perfect to savor neat or with a splash of water to enhance its details, Days Old Super also pairs well with moderately flavored dishes, such as white meats or fresh cheeses, enhancing both the drink and the dish it is matched with. A true gem for fine whisky enthusiasts.
