Nikka Whiskey was established in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru, the first Japanese to ever study the art of whisky production. He built the company's first distillery in Yoichi, Hokkaido, a location which he had always considered to be ideal for whisky production, similar in many ways to the Scottish town where he had studied. Miyagikyo, Nikka's second distillery, was built in 1969 in Sendai, Honshu, another pristine location perfectly suited to whisky production. This bottling is distilled in a Coffey still normally used for grain whisky production. Based on a mix of corn and barley, this is a vodka with flavor and texture. Its zesty notes, rich sweetness, and milky mouthfeel perfectly capture the exquisite fullness resulting from the Coffey still.
