ABOUT

Shake up your whiskey world with Nikka Non-Peated Yoichi Single Malt Whisky. Crafted at the Yoichi Distillery in Hokkaido, Japan, this no-age-statement stunner flips the script on Yoichi’s smoky reputation. Launched in 2021 as part of the Nikka Discovery Series, it’s bottled at 94 proof, showcasing unpeated malts with a coal-fired twist. Expect a bright, fruity dance—vibrant and lush, with a creamy mouthfeel that defies the norm. Sip it neat to catch its playful spirit, or chill it in a highball for a refreshing jolt. Ever wondered what Yoichi tastes like without the peat? This limited gem, with just 2,820 bottles for the U.S., offers a rare peek at Nikka’s experimental side. 

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Golden apple and acacia honey leap out, mingling with citrus peel and a whisper of nutmeg. It’s a lively tease.

Palate: Creamy vanilla floods in, joined by nectarine and a zesty coffee bean kick. Marzipan and pepper weave through beautifully.

Finish: Spicy ginger snaps with a fruity lift, easing into a bright, zesty hum that lingers softly.

FOOD PAIRING

Craving a match? Pair this whisky with seared scallops—the creamy texture sings with the palate. Want a bite? Try almonds; they echo the nutty depth. For dessert, a citrus tart amplifies the nose’s zest. Feeling wild? Spicy tuna sushi sparks a thrilling contrast with the finish.
