A tribute to Masataka Taketsuru, the father of Japanese whisky and founder of Nikka, Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt 17 Year Old Blended Malt Whisky (now discontinued) truly honors the man who pioneered Japanese whisky.

A Discontinued Classic

Nikka Taketsuru 17 Year Old features a blend of the two Nikka single malts, combining the strength and character of Yoichi with the elegance and precision of the Miyagikyo. The result is an outstanding pure malt that was selected the world’s best-blended malt three times, making the Nikka Taketsuru 17 Year Old one of the most distinguished Japanese whisky of our times.

An Elegant, Aromatic Malt

Bottled at 86 proof, Nikka Taketsuru 17 Year Old opens with an aroma of fresh berries, dried sultanas, vanilla and honey followed by a spicy and rounded palate with notes of blood orange and chocolate

"Pleasant, faintly smoky, an espresso finish. Easy to drink with plenty of flavor to it."
