- Description
- Yoichi's Aromatic Yeast expression showcases Hokkaido malt with peated character enhanced by Nikka's experimental yeast programme—low-temperature fermentation designed to amplify estery, floral notes alongside the distillery's signature smoke. The combination creates a whisky of unusual elegance: peated but fruit-forward, with aromatic complexity rarely found in traditional heavily peated styles. This limited release reflects Nikka's commitment to exploring fermentation science as a tool for flavour development. For those seeking peated whisky with unexpected finesse.
