【New Item】THE NIKKA NINE DECADES

The theme is diversity and lore.
The design symbolizes Nikka Whisky pioneering the times.

The skills that have been passed down through the generations and the diversity of the original sake that has been produced.
The product design reflects the unparalleled individuality of Nikka Whisky.
When you open the heavy wooden box, you will see the signatures of the eight previous blenders, from the first master blender, Masataka Taketsuru, to the present day, on the mirror inside the door. The bottle of THE NIKKA, designed to resemble the overlapping collars of a kimono, expresses the depth of a blended product.
The front side is simply the name of the bottle, while the back side is engraved with Roman numerals indicating the nine Decades and the venerable Nikka emblem, using the Edo carving® technique, a fusion of traditional craftsmanship and sandblasting techniques.
The engraving of the two sides of the front and back is extremely difficult and involves a high level of craftsmanship.
On the seal, 18 nine-sided squares are arranged on a checkerboard pattern that represents the individuality of the six distilleries/factories in six different colors, expressing a beautifully harmonized blend.

Edo carving® is a registered trademark of Matsuura Blast.
