Nikka Whisky Distilling

Nikka Coffey Grain If you loved From the Barrel and want a Nikka that passes the Japanese whisky test, start here. Nikka states plainly that Coffey Grain meets all the criteria, which its sister Coffey Malt does not. It comes from the old-fashioned Coffey stills Nikka imported from Scotland in the 1960s, and at 45% it is rich, sweet and creamy, closer to a gentle bourbon than to most Scotch grain. Excellent neat, and an easy win with soda.
