Miyagikyo Moscatel Wood Finish 2017

A single malt from Nikka's Miyagikyo distillery in Sendai, Japan. Finished in Moscatel Wood for a limited edition run in 2017. Miyagikyo was built in 1969 by the Nikka Whisky company. Nikka was founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru, a former Suntory employee who had studied at the University of Glasgow, and later trained as a blender at the now lost Hazelburn distillery in Campbeltown. Miyagikyo is primarily a malt distillery, but now also produces Nikka’s grain whisky after it moved the Nishinomaya coffey stills there in the 1999.
