The Whisky Yoichi Discovery Non Peated from the Nikka distillery, located on the island of Hokkaido, represents a refined example of Japanese tradition in the world of single malts. This whisky is characterized by the absence of peat, which allows the enhancement of more delicate and clean aromatic profiles, far from the smoky influences typical of peated whiskies.
The careful selection of malts, combined with a distillation process in traditional stills reminiscent of Scottish ones, gives the Yoichi Discovery a balanced and smooth character, with fresh and floral notes intertwined with slightly fruity hints and a delicate minerality. The aging takes place in oak barrels that enrich the distillate with gentle nuances of vanilla and sweet spices.
This whisky stands out for its lightness and refinement, ideal as an introduction for those wishing to approach Japanese single malts without the aggressive complexity of peatiness. Perfect neat or with a splash of water to release further aromatic nuances, it pairs excellently with delicate dishes such as raw fish or fresh cheeses, enhancing its surprising territorial elegance.
