Nikka Coffey Malt

A Nikka curiosity: a malted barley whisky distilled in a Coffey column still, instead of the traditional copper pot stills used for malts. That method gives a very sweet, rounded profile, with vanilla, caramel, tropical fruit and a touch of cereal. Note that, as it doesn’t use a traditional pot still, it would not be considered a single malt in Europe. It is a singular and very indulgent whisky.
