PREMIUM SPIRIT RELEASE

Nikka Taketsuru Pure Malt Essentials 2026 Limited Edition

95

The Essentials series is a limited collection of five expressions capturing the core of Taketsuru Pure Malt. This first release highlights coal-fired distillation at Yoichi Distillery. Using malts dating back to 2000, it focuses on maturation and depth of peat and fruit flavours. Gentle aromas of mature casks are followed by a full-bodied palate of malt sweetness and peaty depth, finishing with a lingering sweet and subtly bittersweet aftertaste.

“The aroma reveals barbecued pineapple and juicy fruit gums. On the palate, vibrant tropical notes emerge alongside smoky peat, cola cubes and juicy red berries.”

“Fruity, floral, sweet, and fresh, the nose has bright citrus and fresh orchard fruit, toasted marshmallow, jasmine, Love Hearts, incense, perfume, and complex florals. This triumphs over previous versions; it’s refreshing, with baked apple, peach, nectarine, and pineapple, developing into marmalade, candied orange, and a fine spiciness, then almond, cherry

cake, soft oak, and clove. The finish is waxy and sappy, with caramel and baked fruit.”
