Fairbairn Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I quite like the Nikka Coffey Japanese malt and was given a bottle of Nikka From The Barrel as a gift so was quite looking forward to cracking it open. Had a dram from it last weekend and it's rank rotten. It'll be kept in the cupboard for "special occasions" (visitors that I don't really like!).

in5omniac Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I had a Ardmore 10YO from "That Boutiquey Whisky Company" last night (I got a pack of 12 30ml different samplers for Christmas). Affirmed my dislike for peated whiskies unfortunately, just don't enjoy them. While not a Whisky, the 3YO James E Pepper rye whiskey finished in Oloroso casks from the pack was a real treat! I do like a sherried whisky though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a bottle of it and was very sad when I finished it! Couple of drops of water and it's good to go. I'm pretty mad into any whisky from Japan though.

My wife life Nikka, last 3 bottlesI've bought her are Nikka from the barrel, Coffey malt and Coffey grain. For a c£35-40 a bottle you can't complain for a good dram for a cheap price.

I just came looking for this thread as I got given a bottle of this as a gift, which believe it or not is my first ever bottle of whisky. Might have a dram every so often in the boozer but never bought a bottle in my life. Page 1 of the whisky guide I suspect, but what's the best way to approach, with or without water?
