Description

A great blended malt which takes its name from the godfather of Japanese whisky making, Masataka Taketsuru. Masataka Taketsuru lived in Scotland from 1919 to 1920, working at many great distilleries, and returned to Japan with a Scottish wife and notebooks overflowing with notes. This whisky has gone on to win many awards and serve as a fine testament to the man who is credited with bringing whisky to Japan.

Producer

In 1918, Masataka Taketsuru, a young Japanese man with an ambition to make genuine whisky went alone to Scotland to unveil the secret of whisky-making. He went on to become the first Japanese ever to master how to make whisky. The two notebooks he returned to Japan with, overflowing with notes and details, later became Japan’s very first guide in whisky production. Masataka later founded Nikka Whisky

Nikka Whisky produces a wide range of whiskies and has since expanded to own a number of distilleries, including Ben Nevis Distillery in Scotland.
