Description
Yamazakura Blended Whisky is a release from Sasanokawa distillery, dating back to 1765 with highly recognised sake and schochu production.
Based in the city of Koriyama Sasanokawa expanded into whisky in the 1940s.
This represents a high-end complement to their entry level whisky range (‘Yama’ means ‘mountain’ and ‘Sakura’ means cherry tree, hence the beautiful label design).
This blend is composed of four malt whiskies and one grain whisky.
Orange blossoms, tangerine and gardenia on the nose, followed by cedar, burnt sugar and nashi pear on the palate.
So quiet yet so powerful.
