I've been going through Japanese single malts lately and they're super good.
Agreed. They get a lot of flack from scotch snobs, but screw em, they’re awesome.

Do black people want to be discriminated against? It doesn't matter if Japanese people are black or white or such ridiculous things.
buckhPiSmasher
Protest it and start a riot. That seems to make things better. I'm still looking for an example though.

Bartender: "What you want to drink?" "Nikka, please!" OP, probably.
GrimReaper411
Probably is one hella good drink too.

Nikka is actually a distillery / brand of products. Just ordering a "Nikka" wouldn't tell the bartender much.
And here's the guy that kills the joke, ladies and gentlemen.

Can't be too shocked when everyone in China uses "nigga" as their "ummm"
I thought “nega” meant, “that?”
Jega means that if I'm remembering right
FunkyMonkey7503
Nah, Zhege (Jega) means "this", Nage (forceful inflection on a) means "that", and Nage (down-up inflection on a) means "which"
Alright then why was all the beijingers saying nege when they were thinking, I asked them too, they told me it meant umm and it fit

I don't make the rules, im sorry. But you have to buy that.

was it good?
It's tasty as fuck.
aamick4
Thats some tasty nikka
Didn’t try it, however their higher quality stuff is quite good (Taketsuru, Miyagikyo, Yoichi, Whisky from the Barrel).
crimsonghost1
Jap whiskey is actually quite good. Come off of your fucking hang ups, realize you've made it to weeb nirvana and enjoy the ride.
Bigcurly2000
Yep, Yamazaki is my favourite! Which, as a Brit, I think means I'm committing some sort of treason against Scotland...
Yeah...cause the Brits have always respected the Scots;)
Um...the Scots ARE Brits. I think you're thinking specifically of the English.
CrabButler
You should be OK as long as you haven't put ice and coke in it while pelting Scotch eggs at the wall.
Scotch eggs are English :op
OK, change that to watching Rab C Nesbitt with the subtitles on.
My Mum's from Glasgow but has lived in England since she was 13, she got upset when she realised she couldn't understand Rab anymore!

Japan's oldest scotch distillery, been around since the 1930's. See: http://www.nikka.com/eng/founder
RageCage42
I love their stuff. Nikka Yoichi 15 is my favorite, but they stopped making aged varieties. The bottle I have is the last I'll ever see.

MakeItBackAlright
Very good whiskey too
Granddellfthegrand
"FROM THE BARREL" is my favorite whiskey.
They make some of the best whisky in the world!
uberarticuno
Its possibly my favourite brand of whiskey (Although I haven't tried too many expensive ones)
VigorousButtstuff
To be fair, Japan also owns Jim Beam and Maker's Mark, so...
DickWarlock89
It's a conglomeration between the states and Japan. Beam-Suntory
The founder of Nikki worked for Suntory for 10 years then left to start his own distillery in 1934.
Japanese can't make scotch. Scotch is Scottish. That's like saying an Irish bourbon, no such thing.
nohar
Can we talk about the "french mustard" that exists everywhere except in France ? Or "greek yogurt" that comes from Turkey ?
chillFlamingo
Or Great Dane dogs that come from Germany?
MrE158
Don't know why you're downvoted. Scotch is clearly a regional appellation for whisky from Scotland.
arek314
Next time I see someone enjoying Grey Goose I'll be sure to say French can't make vodka.
"Vodka" isn't a region-specific name though. The drink is "whisky", "Scotch" refers to whisky from Scotland.
Of course it is, it's from Vodka Belt.
Killstealer
This is technically true; nikka whiskey is still fantastic however, I also recommend yoichi single malt.
ProjectSierraOne
Visited the distillery last time in Japan, was uber impressed. Also, heavens smoked upon us cause at the airport /1
We found 2 bottles of Nikka 25yr (they go for $1000USD a bottle) /2
oh my, quite an investment! sounds lovely however.
steve77777777
is the difference between the two just where they're made? are you telling me scotch and bourbon are a regional thing? genuine question btw
It's a little bit of location and process. There are American whiskys that aren't bourbon, JD for example.
As much about marketing as anything else. You can make Champagne outside that region of France, but they will sue to prevent calling it that
Actually they're not, "Scotch" and "Bourbon" are indicative of the manufacturing process, not where they're made.
I'd argue that the "whisky" is indicative of the process (distinct from "whiskey" for example). Scotch is clearly a regional appellation.
I admit you got a point here.
ThatoneQuebecguywhothinkshesCanadian
At least they're trying.
BritishGingerLefty
No he means it's a legal naming thing. Scotch is Scottish whiskey only. This is Japanese whiskey. Japtch perhaps.
theycallmewillywonka
No. It's a manufacturing thing. Nothing to do with location.
Erm it's both. Bourbon has to be in the states, scotch - Scotland and Pot Still whiskey - Ireland
Really? I was told it had to be distilled and bottled in Scotland and aged for a min of 3 years to be scotch. That not right?
