Finally get to taste Nikka Coffey Grain, Coffey Malt is already one of my favorites 🥃 This whisky is mainly made from corn and is a 45% ABV NAS, however age is said to be between 8-12 years. 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 NOSE • Nose was rather full mainly with notes of brown sugar and lemon zest also cereal and vanilla. Fumes can be a tad overpowering at first so I'd say let it breathe a moment. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 PALATE • Palate definitely has notes like a bourbon at first, caramel and vanilla. But then to my delight citrus came flying through, giving it a fresh feel. There are spices in there as well. 🌕🌕🌕🌖🌑 FINISH • The finish is quite lean, more notes of brown sugar, toffee and vanilla. It has an easy burn that picks up strength afterwards. 🌕🌕🌕🌖🌑 OVERALL • It is a pleasant dram, I like the idea of a bourbon-like whisky that has balancing notes of cereal and that delightful citrus. I still think Nikka Coffey Malt is more enjoyable personally. Let it breathe after pouring or decant it if you are brave 😉 PS. "Coffey" is the name of the still and has nothing to do with coffee. DS.
