How about a cheaper (I'd settle for more available) Nikka Coffey Malt? I discovered this a couple years ago, and it's by far my favorite whiskey. It used to be priced around $55/bottle in Chicago, but recently I've seen it going for as much as $80.
I really was surprised how much I liked it compared to the bottle of Nikka Coffey Grain I tried for comparison. I see the grain bottles everywhere, but malt is a bit more hit or miss it seems.
I think what I like about it is the lack of cask effects, while not being quite as "harsh" as the grain.
- massaman_yams 8y agoThe Coffey Grain just smelled too much like rubbing alcohol to me. I couldn't stand it. Is the Coffey Malt better?
- phil21 8y agoYes, I had absolutely the same reaction to the Coffey Grain. Someone gave me a single "sample" of the Malt and it was night and day. This is the only alchohol I kinda don't keep in the house because it goes too quick if I do. Worth a shot a least!
- massaman_yams 8y agoThanks, I'll have to give it a try then!
