Taketsuru 17y

About

The Nikka Taketsuru 17 Years Old pays homage to the brand's founder, Masataka Taketsuru, a pioneer in Japanese whisky production. This pure malt whisky embodies Taketsuru's craftsmanship and passion, maturing for 17 years in American oak barrels, contributing to its complex and layered character. Reflecting a rich Japanese tradition, this whisky offers a unique experience for true whisky connoisseurs. On tasting, the whisky reveals a fruity and spicy palate with notes of caramel and dried fruit. The nose features ripe fruit aromas, with hints of pineapple and a touch of vanilla. The finish is medium-length and slightly spicy, with a lingering sweetness that beautifully balances the overall profile. Enjoy this whisky neat or with a drop of water to fully appreciate its flavors.
