Nikka Single Malt Yoichi Moscatel Wood Finish

This is an extremely limited release by the great Yoichi distillery, released in 2017, with only
500 bottles available for retail. The single malt spent its last year of maturation in a Moscatel
wood cask, before being bottled at 46% ABV.

Moscatel is a type of Portuguese fortified wine which is made using sweet, muscat grapes.
On the nose, the great Yoichi smoke is strong, with a subtle muscat fruitiness present in the
background. Tropical fruit, and thick honey spread gently on the palate, followed by an
intense peaty finish.
