Nikka From The Barrel is a cask strength Japanese blended whisky bottled at 51.4% ABV, marrying malt and grain whiskies from Nikka's two distilleries then re-casking for further maturation. The nose is rich with caramel, sherry, and orange peel. The palate is bold with chocolate, vanilla, dried fruit, spice, and a long, warming finish with a hint of smoke.
