The Whisky Nikka Miyagikyo Apple Brandy Finish 2020, 70cl, represents an extraordinarily rich and intriguing fusion of Japanese and European traditions. This limited edition is finished in barrels that previously contained apple brandy, giving it a distinctive and unique character. On the nose, sweet and enveloping notes of cooked apple and caramel are immediately noticeable, accompanied by floral hints and light spices. On the palate, the whisky showcases a surprising complexity with impeccable balance between the sweet taste of apple, vanilla, and the slightly spicy touch of oak. The finish is long and smooth, with a pleasantly fruity aftertaste that invites another sip. This whisky is a work of art that will satisfy both novices and the most demanding connoisseurs, offering a unique and memorable tasting experience. A jewel from the Miyagikyo distillery that celebrates innovation and creativity in the world of whisky.
