Since its beginning in 1940, Nikka whisky has become a vaunted brand built on heritage. Produced with deep respect for the Scottish whisky-making process while maintaining its unique signature style of Japanese whisky, Nikka rewards its fans with a complex flavour profile characterised by the fragrance of aged oak, a bold yet balanced palate and striking notes of peat, smoke, spices, fruit and earth when you're enjoying one of the label’s single-grain, malt or blended styles.

Whether you’re looking for a dram reserved for special occasions or life’s precious moments in between, discover this premium drop for yourself and find an expansive range of cult favourites and limited edition releases from a brand described as the father of Japanese whisky.

From a mature single malt that has been aged for 21 years to its Gold & Gold collection that is topped by a samurai head or the brand’s ‘From The Barrel’ collection that gives you the opportunity to sniff and taste its barrel-aged style that’s traditionally reserved for whisky blenders, whatever you’re in the mood for, there is always new and exciting Nikka whisky to discover and pair to your occasions.

With bold styles that balance sweetness with rich vegetal and smokey flavours, Nikka Japanese whisky will tempt your palate with the smooth flavours of caramel and chocolate and notes of citrus, plum, dates and honey that linger on your taste buds. Whether you enjoy it neat, on the rocks, blended with soda water or ginger ale to create a highball or as a base to create sumptuous cocktails, this amber-hued drink is superb to enjoy alone or paired with grilled and cured meats and lavish cheeseboards, depending on how heavy or light your whisky tastes.
