Vintage: | 2014 |
---|---|
Description: | History,. In 2014, Suntory released the first member of the Yamazaki Limited Edition series. The whiskys featured a blend of young single malts aged in American oak casks & Bourbon barrels, combined with single malts aged over 20 years in European oak barrels & Sherry and Port wine casks. Created by Shinji Fukuyo (Suntory's Chief Blender) this whisky is showcased in a custom designed collectible bottle, which proudly displays Yamazaki in gold letters, along with an image of the rows of casks in the distillery cellar. The number of bottles produced was extremely limited and were Japan Only releases!. The plan was for the Limited Editions to be an annual release, and it was, until 2017 when they decided to discontinue the series due to diminishing aged stock. So, not only is this the first release in the series (and only available in Japan), but the series only existed for 4 years! Not much has changed in terms of demand and availability of Japanese whisky since 2017, so this is a perfect addition to any Japanese whisky collection. Tasting Notes,. Nose: Honey melon, light oak, grassy, malt and berries. Palate: Malt, fruity, honey, creamy vanilla sherry, moderate amount of oak. Finish: honey all flower and lemon |
