Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky is a single-grain, Japanese corn whiskey that is produced using a continuous Coffey still, which is a specific distilling technique. Somewhat reminiscent of a fine bourbon, this whiskey has rich toffee and vanilla flavors with sweet, fruity notes throughout.<\/p>\n<p>This buttery smooth, simple spirit is easy to sip on its own \u2014 and the addition of the espresso shot helps to further elevate the impressive flavor profile.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2 oz.
