Nikka Whisky limited releases

About this listNikka Whisky

Nikka Whisky is owned by Asahi Group Holdings and runs two Japanese distilleries, Yoichi in Hokkaido (established 1934) and Miyagikyo in Sendai (established 1969); it also acquired the Ben Nevis distillery in Scotland in 1989. Its Discovery series began in September 2021 with Yoichi Single Malt Non-Peated, bottled at 47% ABV, and Miyagikyo Single Malt Peated, each limited to 20,000 bottles worldwide and chosen by Nikka blenders from batches in its reserve. Nikka suspended many age-statement whiskies in 2015 because of a shortage of mature stock, and Single Malt Miyagikyo 10 Years Old, announced for the US in July 2026 at 45% ABV with 1,572 bottles at a suggested price of $174.99, was the first age-statement Miyagikyo since then. In January 2020 Nikka said it would delist Taketsuru Pure Malt 17, 21 and 25 year old and the no-age-statement Taketsuru Pure Malt in all markets in March 2020, keeping only a strictly allocated amount of bottles in select markets. The no-age-statement Taketsuru Pure Malt was replaced by a new no-age-statement version, so collectors should check which version a bottle of Taketsuru Pure Malt is.
