Nikka Whisky celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Miyagikyo Distillery on May 11, 2019.
Part of the celebration is the release of limited editions of both Single Malt Yoichi and Single Malt Miyagikyo, respectively named "Single Malt Yoichi Limited Edition 2019" and "Single Malt Miyagikyo Limited Edition 2019."
Each NAS whisky contains malt whisky spanning some five decades: 1960s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s. In the case of the Miyagikyo, it contains a bit of the very first whisky coming out of the distillery.
Notice the language there: Nikka does not actually say that the whisky has been matured for X years -- only that it was distilled in a certain decade.
Limited to 1 per customer.
Nose: Sweetness of butter and maple-syrup coated pancakes, oaky vanilla, and peatiness of the seashore.
Palate: Bitter dark chocolate, fragrant barley body, peat smoke.
Finish: woodiness of oak, bright orange peel, trailing strong peat.
