Vintage Nikka Gold & Gold Samurai Edition | Rare Solid Metal Armor Bottling | 750ml
£240.00
A spectacular rarity for serious collectors, this is the original, vintage Nikka Gold & Gold Samurai Edition featuring the highly coveted solid metal cast armor. While modern export versions transitioned to lighter plastic variants, this genuine, heavy domestic release from the early era showcases the incredible, weighty craftsmanship originally intended by the distillery.
Impeccably preserved, this investment-grade bottle comes complete with its original studio-shot presentation box, the vintage Samurai instruction leaflet, and the factory-issued pouring spout. The liquid inside is a historical blend of premium pot-still and traditional coffey-still grain whiskies distilled decades ago, offering a rich, smooth, and beautifully integrated taste of Nikka’s golden era.
Tasting Notes:
-
Nose: Richly aromatic and mature. Deep notes of clean malt, vanilla pod, stewed red apples, and a subtle undertone of old cigar tobacco smoke.
-
Palate: Velvety and complex. Excellent mouthfeel with a balance of dark brown sugar, warming baking spices, old oak tannins, and sweet flaked corn.
-
Finish: Long, warming, and clean, fading gracefully into soft wood spice and a lingering honeycomb sweetness.
