Nikka from the barrel is great! We use one of the bottles for chia seeds now. Cool story. We just got a bottle of Nikka ‘Days’ which is good too.
On a Japanese whisky note, I visited the Yamazaki distillery a few years ago with my wife and 2 friends who work in the industry. Amongst us we tried one of everything from their tasting bar that isn’t commercially available - new make, spirit for blending, can’t even remember what else now. 2 full trays worth of drams. We recorded ourselves tasting each thing and discussing it. That recording, me with no idea how to express tastes, I am promised is lost. Good buzz though and interesting
I tried a little yesterday and have to agree. I judge everything against the Bunnahabain 12 and I think the Nikka is a little lighter but very similar.
