nikka yoichi 15<\/a><\/h1>\n

Nikka’s Yoichi single malt is a product of the Yoichi distillery, which was founded by Masataka Taketsuru in 1934.<\/p>\n

Taketsuru chose to build the distillery in Yoichi, Hokkaido due to its environmental conditions being similar to Scotland, where he learned the art of whisky making.<\/p>\n

The single malt boasts peaty notes and smokiness resulting from traditional direct coal-fired distillation, as well as a briny hint derived from the aging process and sea breeze.<\/p>\n

The Yoichi distillery is situated in the small coastal fishing town of Yoichi on Hokkaido Island, which has a climate resembling that of Scotland.<\/p>\n

The distillery is located to the west of Sapporo and is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with the sea bordering the fourth.<\/a><\/p>\n

Hokkaido is unique in having local access to peat, which was initially sourced from local peat bogs and gave Yoichi’s whisky its distinctive and subtle smoky character.<\/p>\n

However, most of the peated malted barley now used for production is imported from Scotland. Coupled with the distillery’s proximity to the ocean, peat leaves a lasting impression on Yoichi’s products, imparting a salty and smoky character akin to Islay’s famous Scottish malts.<\/p>\n

Yoichi still uses coal-fired stills, which are no longer present at any Scottish distillery, adding a unique flavor to the whisky and paying homage to its heritage.<\/p>\n

Masataka Taketsuru is regarded as the father of Japanese whisky, hailing from a family of sake brewers whose business dates back to 1733.<\/a><\/p>\n

Taketsuru was taught from an early age that sake-making was a painstakingly meticulous art and took this lesson to heart, training as a chemist and preparing to carry on his family’s trade.<\/p>\n

However, it was Scotch whisky that captured his imagination, and he devoted his life to it. He travelled to Scotland in 1918, where he learned the secrets of whisky-making and met his wife, Rita, who became a source of inspiration for him.<\/p>\n
