Kate Fraser's Picks

Saint Patrick’s Day 🍀

Nikka Whisky was founded by Masataka Taketsuru, the Father of Japanese whisky. Aspiring to create “genuine” whisky in Japan, Masataka set off alone to Scotland in 1918 to gain the knowledge needed to achieve his goal. Built in 1934, Yoichi’s location was chosen due to its similarities to Scotland’s climate, which was thought to be ideal for crafting whisky. Yoichi Malts are bold, peated and have that lovely coastal character us whisky drinkers crave. As for St. Paddy’s day plans? Zero. Nothing I love more than sitting on my couch, I’ll be sipping my whisky at home!
