Interesting Fact
Despite being a 100% malt whisky, Japan’s strict classification laws mean Nikka Coffey Malt can’t be labeled a “single malt”, making it one of the most technically rebellious whiskies on the shelf.

Serving Suggestions
Best neat or with a splash of cool water to highlight the tropical fruit notes. Skip the mixers, this one’s meant to be savored slow.
