Nikka From the Barrel Extra Marriage is a limited edition created to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic From the Barrel. This exceptional expression showcases Nikka’s unparalleled expertise in the art of Japanese blending.
Benefiting from a marriage period twice as long as that of the original edition, this whisky reveals remarkable aromatic depth and perfect balance. It results from the union of Yoichi and Miyagikyo single malts with grain whiskies mainly made from corn, distilled in the famous Coffey stills. These stills were imported from Scotland in 1963 to equip the Nishinomiya distillery, before being transferred to Miyagikyo in 1999, preserving a unique heritage of craftsmanship.
Presented in its iconic square bottle with a silver label, Nikka From the Barrel Extra Marriage stands out as a more refined, more complex, and truly collectible interpretation of the legendary Japanese blended whisky.

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.
