Wintery Japanese Whiskeys

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Nikka Whiskey From the Barrel Features a Delicate Yet Spicy Flavor

— December 3, 2014 — Lifestyle
Nikka Whiskey From The Barrel is an exclusive blend from the Japanese whiskey brand that has yet to make its way into the American market.

The Japanese whiskey features a potent flavor that contains dried pear, vanilla oak and winter spices. The unique flavor profile, combined with the whiskey's robust 51.4% alcohol measure, ensures a powerful taste.

Founder Masataka Taketsuru has a family history of sake brewers, a degree in organic chemistry and bucket load of distillery experience under his belt, all of which led him to developing Japan's first whiskey for Kotobukiya. Needless to say, the man has expertise coming out of his ears, and his whiskey is certainly worth the effort it'll take to track down.
Trend Themes
1. Japanese Whiskey - Increased demand for unique and flavorful whiskey from Japan is an opportunity for distilleries to innovate and create premium blends.
2. Exclusive Blends - The popularity of exclusive blends like Nikka Whiskey From The Barrel presents an opportunity for whiskey brands to create limited edition offerings that entice consumers and create buzz.
3. Flavor Innovation - The unique flavor profile of Nikka Whiskey From The Barrel highlights the potential for innovative and unexpected flavor combinations that can set a whiskey brand apart in a competitive market.
Industry Implications
1. Alcohol Distilleries - Alcohol distilleries can innovate and expand their product lines to include Japanese whiskeys and exclusive blends to appeal to a wider range of consumers.
2. Luxury Goods - The popularity of exclusive and premium blends presents an opportunity for luxury goods brands to showcase their craftsmanship and appeal to consumers who value uniqueness and quality.
3. Food and Beverage - Restaurants and retailers can tap into the trend of Japanese whiskey and flavor innovation by adding these premium blends to their offerings and creating cocktail menus that showcase their flavors.
