Hi Nikka – a light, fruit forward and floral whisky.

Ronin’s Nikka highball uses a slightly burnt lime peel to bring out a charred character to the malty undertones of the whisky. The oils released from the lime peel also give subtle body to the highball.

INGREDIENTS:

50 ml Hi Nikka Whisky

1 lime peel

190 ml bottle Wilkinson Soda Water
