The special whiskey will be crafted at the Miyagikyo Distillery in Sendai, Japan. Experts from both companies will work closely. Their goal is to develop a whiskey that reflects the essence of music itself. The taste profile will be designed to evoke the feeling of listening to a great song.
Sony believes music and whiskey share a connection. Both can create powerful emotional experiences. The company wants this whiskey to capture that shared spirit. Details about the specific whiskey type or aging process are still under development.
Nikka’s Miyagikyo Distillery is famous for its smooth, complex single malt whiskies. Its location offers ideal conditions for whisky production. The distillery team brings generations of expertise to this project. They are excited to explore this new creative direction with Sony.
The partnership focuses on blending artistic worlds. Sony sees it as a natural extension of its music business. Nikka views it as a chance to innovate within Japanese whisky. Consumers can expect a premium product resulting from this unique fusion.
