The complex formula is created by blending more than 100 different batches of malt and grain whisky. After blending, the whisky is filled into used barrels and matured for another few months. This "marriage" process harmonizes all components in the formula, resulting in a mellow taste. Bottling is controlled at 51.4% ABV, a level that Nikka blenders have determined through repeated experiments to achieve the ideal taste profile.
