Nikka Super Nikka Whisky Rare Old is an outstanding example of the art of Japanese whisky-making and comes from the renowned Nikka Whisky Company, founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru, the pioneer of Japanese whisky. This special bottling was created in the 1960s as a tribute to his Scottish wife, Rita, and to this day embodies the fusion of Japanese precision and Scottish tradition. With an alcohol content of 43% ABV and a harmonious blend of malt and grain whiskies, Super Nikka Whisky is a classic that impresses with its complexity and elegance.

The aromas characteristic of Nikka arise from the combination of distillates from the two distilleries, Yoichi and Miyagikyo. Whilst Yoichi is known for its slightly smoky, robust character, Miyagikyo contributes fruity and floral notes. The result is a finely balanced, smooth whisky with balanced sweetness, mild spiciness and subtle smokiness. Bottled in a distinctive 0.7-litre bottle and stylishly presented in a high-quality gift box, Super Nikka Rare Old is a real eye-catcher, not only in terms of taste but also visually.
