The Yamazaki 12 Japanese Whisky

• Japanese Single Malt Whisky
• 70cl / 43%

From the House of Suntory Whisky, The Yamazaki is Suntory’s flagship single malt whisky from Japan’s first and oldest malt distillery. Its mash bill boasts 100 percent malted barley, and it’s cask-aged in The Yamazaki Distillery for 12 years before being bottled. It first came onto the market in 1984 and was the first seriously marketed Japanese single malt whisky to break into the UK market.

Suntory’s Yamazaki 12 Year Old continues to impress with its well-balanced fruity sweetness, something that appeals to novice and experienced whisky drinkers alike. This golden whisky boasts complex aromas and superior drinkability. The nose features hints of fruit, including peach, grapefruit, pineapple and candied orange, along with spices such as clove and orange. This whisky also has notes of rich coconut and tart cranberry, while the long finish features spicy ginger and cinnamon.
