Nikka From The Barrel is a blended whisky created to deliver full flavors and richness of whisky “from barrels” which only blenders can sniff and taste. The iconic bottle is designed to reflect “a small block of whisky” – embodying the rich, strong taste of the whisky within.

From The Barrel is an extremely complex blended whisky bottled at 51.4% ABV. In order to deliver its richness and full flavors, the blended liquid goes into used barrels for another few months for “marriage” before it is bottled.

This beautiful expression from Nikka should be drunk neat, and although it is 51.4% in alcohol, it goes down easily. It is blend of Japanese malt whisky from Yoichi distillery and grain whisky from Miyagikyo distillery which might be the reason why it's so good.
