"Nikkas entry-level whisky from Miyagikyo distillery. Light in body, yet full of flavour, this is an excellent introduction to Japanese whisky. Elegantly fruity with sherry-cask character." - The Whiskey Exchange
With a joyful finish and palate which I enjoyed more than the nose, Nikka Miyagikyo Non Age Statement was a lovely gateway whisky to Japanese whiskies.
There is a great balance here between sweet and savory, but the whisky lacks much in the way of depth to back that up, giving way to a relatively short, though perfectly pleasant, finish.
