Hitting the Big Time: Famous Whiskies
5:00pm to 8:00pm
Japanese distilleries are officially global superstars. Their wares are now just as clamored for as the Scotch whiskies they set out to emulate. Nikka Whisky Distilling Co is touted as one of the greatest producers in the world. And it’s easy to see why: the Nikka Coffey Grain Japanese Whisky is a lightly-spiced beam of tropical fruit and vanilla orchids. Meanwhile, the Nikka Pure Malt Taketsuru Whisky beckons with cream, white chocolate, and a snap of dry peat. Taste these whiskies and be somebody!
