Middle of the pack
Right down the middle. Reviews and price both sit mid-pack. Whiskybase drinkers give it 83.2 across 3 ratings, vs. 83.7 for the typical japanese whisky (14 rated).
Nikka From the Barrel is a Japanese blended whisky first released in 1985, combining a wide variety of malt and grain whiskies from Nikka's Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries. The blend undergoes a final "marrying" period in used casks before bottling at a robust 51.4% ABV, delivering rich, full-flavored character in Nikka's distinctive squat, square bottle.
