Nikka From the Barrel Japanese Whisky

"Green Spot Quails' Gate is the third edition in the Wine Geese series. Matured in American oak and ex-sherry casks, the liquid was then finished for 16 months in Pinot Noir casks to impart a delicate red wine bouquet to the nose, with notes of ripe cherry and juicy raspberries." —producer

"Nose: Aromatic oils with a touch of wood, spicy toffee.
Taste: Wonderfully mellow and smooth, a mouthful of complex flavour - fudge, toffee, spice, hints of wood and leather, vanilla and a gentle sherry nuttiness.
Finish: A long, lingering finish carries the theme of the wood, spice and toffee right through to the end." —producer

"Tropical fruit salad and whipped cream drizzled with sea-salt caramel. Whisky Game-Changer. We can’t wait to meet your tastebuds." —producer

"A meticulous search of the cask inventory revealed an intriguing array of fine aged malt and grain Scotch whiskies aged 25 years and older. Each cask was individually sampled and assessed by Master Blender, Stephanie MacLeod before being chosen. Once MacLeod was satisfied that she had a perfectly balanced flavour profile in the Dewar's House Style, the specially selected casks were blended together and then filled into oak casks for an additional period of maturation, a process pioneered by Dewar's, known as double-ageing, to add more depth and enriched smoothness. During this extra period of maturation, the disparate characters of the malts and grains are allowed to interact with one another and mellow further. In an extra step unique to the new 25-year-old expression, the whisky was then filled into a set of freshly disgorged Royal Brackla casks for an extra period of finishing. Dewar's 25 is endlessly smooth, rich and elegant. Awakened on the palate: the sophisticated whisky is glorious in its harmony and balance, gently revealing layers of rich fruit, floral notes and delicate honey, with a hint of smoke to finish." —producer

"Inspired by the original, Yellow Spot is the rare taste of a bonder's style Pot Still Irish whiskey. Maturation in Bourbon barrels, Sherry butts and Malaga casks creates a superbly complex whiskey with fresh and sweet top notes." —producer

"Now a permanent expression in the family having originally launched as a limited edition, Redbreast 15-Year-Old is matured in a combination of Spanish Oloroso sherry casks and American Bourbon whisky barrels. Bottled at the higher ABV strength of 46%, Redbreast 15-Year-Old is non chill filtered. Full and rich aromas with a complex yet balanced mix of berry fruits and aromatic oils. Fully round and mellow on the palate with the succulence of fleshy fruit combined with spices and toasted wood. Long and sophisticated finish." —producer

"Rye inspired by Old World barrel-aging traditions. This 86-proof 12 year-old Rye Whiskey is a marriage of whiskeys aged in New American Oak and ingeniously finished in Port (7%,) French Sauternes (30%,) and Madeira casks (63%). We’ve taken the elements that are most quintessential in an American rye – boldness and character – and fused them with the elegance and grace of an 18 year old Scotch." —producer

"Hibiki was created to be the paragon of the Suntory blend. The name Hibiki literally means 'resonance' in Japanese, and reflects the Suntory corporate philosophy to 'live in harmony with people and nature.' Hibiki celebrates Japanese nature and the subtleties found in the 24 seasons of the traditional calendar, reflected in the 24 facets of its bottle design. Hibiki is a harmonious blend of innumerous malt and grain whiskies from Suntory's distilleries, which are meticulously blended to create a full orchestra of flavors and aromas. The Hibiki Japanese Harmony is the epitome of the Hibiki blend. Subtle, noble, and harmonious, Hibiki Japanese Harmony is a perfect introduction to Japanese Whisky and the award-winning House of Suntory Whisky." —producer

"King Car whisky is one of our 3 latest releases. Our aim is to make the flavour the fullest and most rounded possible. And this time, because we wanted to retain most of the flavours, the alcoholic strength was raised to 46%! This is the first expression launched in the name of King Car which is the name of the Group. The chairman of the Group, Mr. T. T. Lee, wanted to have a whisky that could also represent the company to show the kind of diverse business that we do, and this King Car (aka Conductor) truly represents the Group with its complex flavours, delicate aromas, and multiple layers of background fruitiness!" —producer
