Yamazaki Pure Malt Japanese Whisky (75cl) 12 Year Old

Colour

Rich amber with sunlit gold and coppery glints, a warm, honeyed hue.

Nose

Elegant and inviting, this opens with ripe orchard fruit—pear and peach—balanced by soft citrus zest. Fragrant vanilla and honeyed sweetness mingle with toasty malt and a touch of almond, while delicate floral notes and a whisper of oak add depth and grace to the aroma.

Palate

Silky and refined, the palate opens with honeyed sweetness and ripe orchard fruits, peach, pear, and citrus zest, layered over a subtle maltiness. Oak spice and cedar provide gentle structure, while vanilla cream and a hint of toast linger into a balanced, elegant finish.

Finish

Long, refined finish with bright citrus zest and vanilla that echo through warm spice. Oak carries the finale, gently threaded with toasted almond and a trace of cocoa, slowly fading into a silky, lingering sweetness.
