Nikka Whisky was founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru,the Father of Japanese whisky. Nikka is one of the largest whisky producers in Japan and worldwide known. It also owns Miyagkyo, Yoichi and Taketsuru.

Nikka From The Barrelis a blend of a grain whisky and Miyagikyo and Yoichi single malts which was released in 1985. The development of this expression started with an aim to deliver full flavors and richness of whisky like “from the barrel”, which only blenders can sniff and taste.
The secret behind its gorgeous flavor is the unique combination, the complex blending of more than 100 different batches of malt and grain whiskies. This “marriage” process harmonizes all components in the formula, resulting in a mellow taste. Most “married” whiskeys are adjusted to an alcohol content of 40-45% by diluting with water before bottling, but “From the Barrel” uses minimal dilution water and is set at 51.4% alcohol content.
