Nikka Coffey Malt Whisky

(NOTE: BEFORE YOU ASK, THERE IS NO COFFEE IN THIS WHISKY. THE WORD REFERS TO THE STILLS THAT THIS IS MADE IN!!!) Let sit for about 5 minutes. 👀: Pale hay-colored notes with sun-kissed gold wheat imbued within, strange that there's hardly any tears after swirling but rather drops sticking to the sides; 👃: Sweet, malty notes, butterscotch, marzipan, honey; 👅: Smooooooooth! Straight up sweetness typical of barley Scotch, right before that you taste the initial weird funky taste; 🏁: Not too lingering, no astringent taste at all, taste disappears quickly, essentially recalibrating your taste buds. This is a beautiful Japanese whisky.

Well this is class. Loads of coffee very smooth.

Pretty good! Very smooth. Nice hint of coffee.

Super smooth, very rich and flavorful. My first venture into Japanese whiskey and I like it alot.
