Named after Nikka’s founder, Taketsuru Pure Malt is a refined blended malt that honours the house style of balance and precision. Drawing on malts from Yoichi and Miyagikyo, it opens with aromas of orchard fruit, soft peat, honey, and subtle oak.

The palate is harmonious and layered, offering gentle smokiness, fruit sweetness, and polished spice. Elegant and thoughtfully composed, Taketsuru Pure Malt reflects Masataka Taketsuru’s vision of whisky-making rooted in tradition yet refined through Japanese sensibility.
