The Whisky Taketsuru Pure Malt, produced by the renowned Nikka distillery in Japan, represents a refined expression of the blend of malts from the Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries. This pure malt whisky is named after Masataka Taketsuru, the pioneer of Japanese whisky, honoring his vision and passion for the art of distillation.
Produced in the Hokkaido region and the Sendai area, this whisky is distinguished by an elegant maturation that favors American oak and European oak casks, giving complexity and smoothness to the aromatic profile. On the nose, it opens with delicate notes of dried fruit, vanilla, and herbal hints, while on the palate, roasted malt, caramel, and a light smokiness reminiscent of Scottish tradition are perceived.
The Taketsuru Pure Malt is a balanced and refined whisky, ideal for those seeking a rich yet harmonious tasting experience. It pairs wonderfully with grilled fish dishes or aged cheeses, accompanying moments of relaxation with an elegant and decisive character. An excellence that highlights the quality of Japanese malts with evident attention to detail.
