【Discontinued】Nikka Ginspire 700ml 43% | Gin with the aroma of whisky malt

"Nikka Ginspire": Innovative Gin from the Holy Land of Whisky

"Nikka Ginspire" is a unique hybrid gin born from the passion and expertise in whisky making that Nikka Whisky has cultivated over many years, drawing "inspiration" from it. It masterfully fuses the refreshing crispness of gin with the rich, full-bodied flavor derived from malt (barley malt). This exceptional product has truly opened up a new genre, "whisky-inspired gin," that even whisky aficionados will appreciate.

Traditional "Maceration and Distillation" Techniques Bring Forth the Soul of Malt

This gin incorporates Nikka Whisky's diverse range of distillation equipment and its maceration and distillation techniques, which maximize the unique characteristics of the ingredients. In addition to over 10 carefully selected botanicals, including juniper berries, it uses malt spirits distilled after macerating "heavy peated malt," which is used in Nikka's whisky production. This process creates a depth and richness not found in ordinary gin.

Layered Aromas and a Pleasant Peat Finish

The moment it's poured into a glass, a refreshing and sharp gin aroma spreads. Upon tasting, the rich and mellow sweetness of malt unfolds, followed by a gentle, lingering smoky finish derived from heavy peated malt. As symbolized by the black and gold packaging design, you can enjoy a complex flavor that balances sophisticated "freshness" and "robustness."

Recommended Ways to Enjoy

To best experience its rich flavor, we recommend trying it first as a "Gin Soda" (mixed with carbonated water). As the carbonation bubbles, the peat aroma becomes even more pronounced. It also pairs exceptionally well with food, especially smoked dishes and meat dishes that complement whisky.
