We stock From the Barrel because it's one of the best-value whiskies in the world. Rich and spicy at high strength, and that chunky little bottle looks great. At 51.4% it's strong, so a splash of water opens it up beautifully.
Tastes like: toffee, dark fruit, spice and oak.
How to drink it:
- Neat with a splash of water
- Over a large ice cube
- Highball: 50ml From the Barrel over lots of ice, topped with cold soda water and a twist of lemon

For the whisky nerds
- Made by: Nikka, Japan.
- This blend: More than a hundred malt and grain whiskies, mostly malts from Nikka's two Japanese distilleries plus Coffey still grain whiskies.
- Marrying: The blend goes back into casks for a few months so the batches can come together.
- Bottling: 51.4% ABV, in a small square bottle meant to look like a block of concentrated whisky.
Why it tastes like this: High strength and a long marrying time make this rich and intense. A drop of water opens it right up.
