To celebrate the 80th anniversary of Nikka Whisky, this limited edition bottling of Taketsuru 21 Year Old Pure Malt has been released, showcasing the brand's dedication to quality and tradition. With only 3,000 bottles produced and bottled in 2014, this whisky is a true collector’s item. Renowned for its excellence, the Taketsuru 21 Year Old has been awarded 'World's Best Blended Malt Whisky' at the 2010 World Whiskies Awards, securing this title for the third time in four years. Named after Masataka Taketsuru, the pioneering founder of Japanese whisky, this blend pays homage to his legacy and expertise. Taketsuru's journey to Scotland to master the art of distilling led to the creation of Japan's first malt distillery and the exceptional whisky that followed. The Taketsuru 21 Year Old Pure Malt aged for 21 years exemplifies his passion and dedication to blending. A blend of malt whiskies from the Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries, this non-chill filtered edition offers a richer and more robust profile with an ABV of 48%. The whisky beautifully embodies the character of the two distilleries, illustrating the blending skills that Nikka has inherited from its founder. Despite a small scrape on the front label, the whisky inside promises a symphony of flavors and aromas, remaining true to Taketsuru’s vision.
