Yamazaki 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky (750Ml)

Description

Crafted at Japan’s oldest commercial malt distillery, established in 1923, this single malt whisky brings centuries of tradition to your glass. Made entirely from malted barley and distilled in traditional copper pot stills, it offers a smooth, velvety experience with each sip. The whisky matures in a signature blend of American oak, Spanish sherry oak, and rare Mizunara oak, giving it a distinctive Japanese character. Expect notes of sandalwood, temple incense, and subtle coconut alongside fruit-forward aromas of peach, pineapple, grapefruit, and candied orange.

On the palate, you’ll notice layers of sweet ginger, cinnamon, butter, and cranberry, all balanced with a gentle warmth of oak and citrus on the refined, lingering finish. Its golden amber hue comes naturally from 12 years of careful aging in the unique climate of the Vale of Yamazaki, where soft water and high humidity accelerate maturation.

Perfect for sipping neat or with a splash of water to open its aromas, it also makes a premium highball with sparkling water and a lemon twist. With global acclaim and limited availability, this expression is a must-try for whisky enthusiasts seeking elegance and depth.
