Unfortunately, we can't ship Yoichi 10 Year Old to the United States at the moment, but we've got some friends who can.
A very well made single malt from Japan, Yoichi is the jewel in Nikka's crown, their 10 year old offering notes of vanilla and fruit. One batch of this received 93 points in the Jim Murray Whisky Bible.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Nose: Plenty of fruit notes - peach stands out in particular, ripe, vibrant and subtly floral. Then there's rich vanilla custard, peat smoke and a hint of nutmeg spice.
Palate: Oily and sweet, with peat smoke following swiftly afterwards. Light oak and developing fruit notes beneath.
Finish: Appealing oak lasts on the finish.

When I obtained this bottle - and paid a pretty little penny for it - I thought, yes!!! .. got one! Well, when the time came to sampling its exalted pedigree of all things Japanese, I got a peculiar shock... it wasn't unlike any other peated Single Malt of the same age.

My first whisky experience was with yoichi 10 year old. Still couldn't find one that can replace this spectacular taste. It's a shame we finished the entire bottle within one night.

I am no expert but i can not find better one and have tried many. The only thing is i can not decide which one is better. I would say yoichi just slightly.

Probably the best whiskey ever made.

I was really surprised by the taste of that whisky. I'll definitely buy another bottle!

This semi peated whisky has probably the most unusual taste i have ever felt. It is smokey in the beginning when it touches your tongue and then brings up some sweetness. I would suggest letting this whisky breath a little bit before taking a sip. Strong and full taste.

OMG! I feel such a fool for dismissing the idea of Japanese whisky. I know Japan a little, have a friend in Tokyo. I should have known better. When they decide to do something properly, they do and how. I'm not saying it's better than Scotch (god forbid) but it is better than a lot of the entry level 12 year old offerings from a lot of Scottish distilleries.This is sumptuous, rich, warm, spicy with a little salt, hint of nutmeg, honey, tropical fruits, smooth, mildly smokey. You can tell I'm drinking it as a write. I'll be buying a few more bottles of this. Not cheap though!
