Brewed using methods of the past, such as direct charcoal heating, Yoichi's single malt truly captures the authentic character of its exceptional location, with its refined coastal and peat notes. Along with Yoichi's original smokiness, this 10-year-old version offers a rounded maturity generated over the years integrated with distinctive notes of peat, well-balanced wood and delicate herbaceous notes.
Yoichi Single Malt is a range of single malt expressions from the Yoichi Distillery, Nikka's first distillery built in 1934. Founder Masataka Taketsuru chose the town of Yoichi in Hokkaido for the environmental conditions similar to Scotland, where he learned to make whisky.
