Mizunara is tricky stuff with its tight grain and wily temperament, but give it 18 years with the right coopers and it sings. Yamazaki’s latest is pure sandalwood, citrus peel, coconut, and old temples in a glass.
Dark cherry, ripe peach, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Spiced orange, apricot, and Japanese incense.
Long and lingering with clove, sandalwood, and dried coconut.
