Country: Japan

Region:

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 48%

Score: 95 Points

This unique Yamazaki single malt was matured exclusively in Mizunara Oak casks, and was released in 2023 to celebrate the House of Suntory’s 100th anniversary of making whisky. The nose has touches of pine needles, honey, ripe tropical fruits, and vanilla. The taste is fruity and tart with mango, papaya, a hint of pine sap, honey, and vanilla. The finish is long and fruity. Excellent! (August, 2023)
