Description:

A 1964 blend called The Hi Nikka was produced in recognition of the emerging Hi-Fi music scene. It's a wonderful, easy-to-drink blended whisky that's smooth and flavorful.

Masataka Taketsuru, the person credited with inventing Japanese whisky, allegedly consumed a dram of this almost every day. It has a hint of smoke and is clear, crisp, and smooth. If the creator of Japanese whisky accomplished it, we ought to be able to believe it.

In 1918, an unaccompanied young Japanese guy went to Scotland to study the art of making genuine whisky. Nikka Whisky was started by Masataka Taketsuru. After having the chance to travel, Masataka became the first Japanese to ever master the skill of producing whisky.

Nikka whiskey is a genuine fusion of cultures since it is the spirit of Scotland trapped in amber and strengthened by painstaking Japanese workmanship.

Masataka Taketsuru, the founder of Nikka, learned the craft of whisky production and distillation directly from Scottish experts. As a result, Nikka's products combine heritage and passion with the accuracy of chemistry.

The result is a variety of single malt and blended whiskies with unreal character, body, and complexity that break the mold of traditional spirits. Nikka whiskies are among the best Japanese exports, and no collection is complete without at least one of them.
