A blended whisky from Japan's Yamazakura range, which is brought to market by Japanese company Sasanokawa Shuzo. The name itself a portmanteau of two Japanese terms 'Yama' means 'mountain' and 'Sakura' means cherry tree. If you think about it, a portmanteau is kind of like a blend but with words, so this name is rather apt for a Japanese blended whisky.
Orange blossom and subtle notes of earthy oak.
Fresh orchard fruit, salted-caramel-coated biscuit, greengages.
Medium length, rich in vanilla.
Smoother that I perfer in a Japanese whiskie but very tasty and silky.
Meh…. I’m no expert, but it’s bottom of the barrel. Fortunately, it only cost me $15, since I live in Japan. No nose, flat taste. I won’t dump it out, but I won’t savor it either.
It was my first Japanese "whisky". If this is how the Japanese taste like, then never going to buy again! Absolutely no nose aromas, really flat. The taste is more like a monthly raw oak barrel aging rather than years in a charred barrel. Completely no flavors other than slight raw oak and pure alcohol. It is so delicate, that perhaps a different level and I shouldn't compare it to any other whiskies I ever tried.
"Japanese whisky" Made with whisky sourced from elsewhere.
Que les non connaisseurs en whisky s’abstiennent de donner des notes ridicules et écrire des commentaires tout aussi ridicules. Quand je lis, gaspillage d'argent ou encore pire trop agressif peu subtile cela me fait rire. Ces personnes ne connaissent strictement rien en whisky. Donc, je trouve ce breuvage élégant, très doux et fort agréable.
