Description
Taketsuru 21 Years Old is Nikka's mature expression of the blended malt, combining Yoichi in Hokkaido and Miyagikyo in Miyagi Prefecture over 21 years of oak maturation. This 2010 global release at 43% sits within the early period of wide international availability for the expression.
The profile here offers a wide range of notes: fresh and dried fruit, honey and dark chocolate, alongside a sherried quality suggesting some sherry-influenced casks or a degree of sherry-wood influence in the vatting. Yoichi's firmer, more structured malt provides the backbone, while Miyagikyo's orchard fruit and lighter touch bring the fresh and fragrant elements. The blend's 21 years in Ex-Bourbon oak tie these elements together with a rounded sweetness.
