Nikka’s largest of its two distilleries, the Miyagikyo Distillery lies between two rivers close to the city of Sendai (two hours by high-speed train to the northeast of Tokyo) in an area noted for its waterfalls and hot springs. Miyagikyo boasts eight pot stills for malt production and a grain distillery (added in 1998) with two column stills.
