Yoichi 1980’s (Nikka, 50cl) is a sought-after official single malt from Nikka’s Yoichi distillery, composed exclusively of malt distilled between 1980 and 1989. Bottled at a bold 52% ABV, it’s a great snapshot of “classic era” Yoichi: coastal, firm, and characterful, with the distillery’s traditional production methods (including coal-fired distillation) adding extra weight and depth. For collectors, the decade-vatting concept and limited-style presentation make it a particularly desirable bottle.
