93 Points, Whisky Advocate

This is such a killer bottle of Whisky and one of the most famous and most difficult to get coming out of Japan. It has a gorgeous gold color to it with inviting notes of peach, pineapple, candied ginger, grapefruit and orange. On the palate, it gives off some dried cranberry notes to pair with some citrus fruit and a little oak. It’s smooth with a long finish, and you can tell this has some age to it. Whisky Advocate called it, “One to cherish.” I’m not arguing – it’s a beautiful example of Japanese Whisky at its finest.

Original price was: $1,205.00.Current price is: $175.00.

The first thing you notice is the elegant fragrance of lychee, spring blossoms, lily, rosewater, and raspberry meringue. Deeper in, grassy notes with star fruit, kumquat, and kaffir lime leaves. The flavors offer perfection in their simplicity: silky honey, soft spices, crystalized pineapple, barley sugar, lemon, and orange. On the finish, the spices chatter on and on as the sweet citrus and honey fade in and out. One to cherish.

“The Yamazaki” Whisky is Suntory’s flagship single malt whisky, from Japan’s first and oldest malt distillery. This one was made by them blending different components aged in American, Spanish, and Japanese Mizunara oak.
