Nikka's first distillery, Yoichi, was founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru. He chose the fishing town of Yoichi due its environmental similarities to Scotland, where he leared to make whisky. Yoichi Single Malt is bold and robust in character, with smoke from the peated barley and coal fired stills, and hints of brine delivered by the coastal sea breeze during the ageing process. Nose: Sooty coal shed smoke, pineapple, tropical fruit, white pepper, dried apricot, aromatic spices. Palate:Oily, smoked citrus, charred pineapple, vanilla toast, sooty white pepper, root ginger, sugared almonds, aromatic incence sticks. Finish: Smoke and spice from a tropical fruit bbq, sweet mango salsa, salty white pepper, green fig. Yoichi (the most northern of all the Japanese distilleries) comes up with the goods and despite some obviously younger malt at work here still a superb representation of this distillery's character.
