NIKKA - Coffey Vodka - 40%
Nikka Whisky Distilling Company, an iconic brand located in Japan, was founded by Masataka Taketsuru, globally recognized as the founding father of Japanese whisky. Coming from a family of sake brewers, he pursued studies in chemistry before perfecting his expertise in several renowned Scottish distilleries. In 1920, he returned to Japan accompanied by his Scottish wife, Rita, and after contributing to the first production of Japanese whisky within the company that would become Suntory, he founded the Yoichi distillery as well as the parent company Nikka, pioneers in the world of Japanese spirits. Nikka also stands out for its distilleries specialized in shochu, a distilled alcohol made from various raw materials such as rice, barley, and sweet potato, as well as its facilities dedicated to the production of cider brandy and apple wine. In 2001, the company joined the Asahi Breweries group, thus consolidating its position in the international premium spirits market.
Following the resounding success of the Coffey Grain and Coffey Malt editions, Nikka expanded its range in 2017 with two new innovative creations: Coffey Gin and the famous Coffey Vodka, which have been well received among connoisseurs of exceptional spirits.
The Coffey Vodka is crafted with unique expertise, made from corn and barley distilled separately, then carefully blended. This mixture of distilled spirits is then filtered through white birch charcoal, ensuring crystalline purity and remarkable smoothness on the palate. Thanks to this artisanal process, this Japanese vodka offers a perfect balance of finesse, elegance, and character, appealing to the most demanding palates.
