Nikka Distillery was the brain child of Masataka Taketsuru. After travelling to Scotland and learning the craft of whisky production and inspired by his love of a Scottish beauty who became his wife, Masataka not only married the love of his life but all married the skill of scotch whisky distillation with Japanese attention to detail.
Consisting of 2 separate distilleries, Yoichi on the island of Hokkaido and Miyagikyo on the main island of Honshu, Nikka Whisky is now world-renowned for its passion for craftsmanship, quality and flavour.
