Nikka Pure Malt Black 500ml

The Nikka Pure Malt Black is a bold, peated expression of Japanese whisky. This 500ml bottle is a highly sought-after blend of single malts. It features whiskies primarily from the Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries. The “Pure Malt” designation signifies a vatted malt, not a single malt.

This particular expression is characterized by its powerful peatiness. It offers a heavier, darker profile compared to other Nikka releases. The aromas are complex, showing smoke, sea salt, coffee, and rich fruit. The palate is robust, dry, and intensely flavoured. Notes of dark chocolate, burnt sugar, and a lingering maritime smoke dominate. It is bottled at a solid 43% ABV.

This rich and peaty character makes it a standout bottle in the Nikka portfolio. The slightly smaller bottle size is perfect for sampling its unique style. The complexity and quality of Nikka Pure Malt Black ensure a memorable Japanese whisky experience. Enjoy this superb whisky neat or with a single ice cube.
