Yamazakura Single Malt Asaka Japanese Whisky, 70cl, 46% vol, Gift Box

A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF BATCH : Yamazakura Single Malt is distilled in a very limited number of batches by the Asaka distillery. Traditional in the making, it is distilled, blended and aged to perfection to bring out a smooth and delicate whisky. A BALANCED & ROUND WHISKY: Made from 100% malted barley and aged for 3 years in bourbon barrels, this single malt is neither chillfiltered nor colored to reveal a fresh and elegant profile with floral notes. A TRIBUTE TO JAPAN: Asaka distillery is located in the Koriyama plain in Japan. "Yama" means "mountains" and "zakura" stands for "sakura" meaning "cherry trees", as a tribute to the Tohoku area (where the distillery stands), worldwildly known for its blooming trees. ACCELERATED AGEING : The specific climate in Japan, hot summers and cold winters allows Yamazakura whiskies to benefit from a more rapid aging, giving them complexity and richness in a short period of time. CAN BE ENJOYED IN MULTIPLE WAYS : Can be enjoyed neat or the traditionnal Japanese way: in a highball glass with soda water and ice.
