Yamazaki 18 Year Old - 100th Anniversary Limited Edition
This limited-edition Yamazaki 18 Year Old was released to mark House of Suntory's 100th anniversary. Mizunara oak casks are the star of the show here, and Suntory began experimenting with mizunara wood as early as the 1940s! It imparts a distinct spiciness and incense-like flavour whisky – a dram fit for a centenary birthday indeed.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Truffles, thick bitter marmalade and resin. Potpourri and heavy Oloroso sherry.
Palate
A rich, bittersweet palate with heather roots, cigar leaves, honey, toffee apples, plum wine and black pepper. A touch of rancio, perhaps…
Finish
Long, fruity, marmalade-led finish.
