Founded in 1969 by Masataka Taketsuru, the Sendai distillery—renamed Miyagikyo in 2001—is nestled in a peaceful village in Miyagi Prefecture. Equipped with eight steam-heated pot stills, whose size enforces a slow and carefully controlled distillation, it released its first single malt in 1989.
After a decade of absence, Nikka Whisky marks the return of the Miyagikyo 10 Year Old with a limited edition. Elegant and radiant, this whisky captivates with its aromatic complexity, blending generous fruity notes that are juicy, slightly tangy, and subtly exotic.

MIYAGIKYO
Nestled in the heart of a pristine natural environment in Miyagi Prefecture, Miyagikyo Distillery embodies the elegance and craftsmanship of Japanese whisky. Founded in 1969 by Masataka Taketsuru, also the founder of Nikka Whisky, it was designed as a complementary site to the Yoichi distillery, with a softer and fruitier approach to whisky style.
Located in a valley surrounded by mountains and crossed by pure rivers, Miyagikyo benefits from a humid, temperate climate ideal for spirit maturation. Distillation is carried out using steam-heated pot stills, promoting a slow and delicate production that yields fine, elegant, and aromatic whiskies.
Renowned for its subtle and refined profiles, Miyagikyo Distillery offers single malts with fruity, floral, and lightly woody notes, delivering a tasting signature that is both balanced and sophisticated. A must-try for Japanese whisky enthusiasts seeking delicacy and complexity.
NIKKA
Born in 1894 into a family of sake producers, Masataka Taketsuru is considered the godfather of Japanese whisky. After training as a chemist, he was hired by the Settsu Shuzo company which sent him to Scotland in 1918 for an apprenticeship. He developed a passion for whisky and decided to devote his life to it. In 1934, he built Yoichi, his first distillery, on the island of Hokkaido. Its growing success enabled him to establish a second in 1969 near Sendai, Miyagikyo. It is from the single malts produced by these two distilleries that the Nikka whisky group produces its entire range of Japanese whiskies.
