Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

much more aromatic than the Yamazaki 10, with an obvious peatiness and notes of moss and fern. Some candy sugar as well, white rum, straw, farm yard, cow stable (just faint ideas of that), apple pie… Very nice nose, with more presence than in many entry-level Scotch malts. Funny notes of sake developing after a while, lemon grass, fresh coriander…

restaurant Palate

sweet but relatively nervous, mildly peaty, spicy and ‘oriental’, with these notes of lemon grass yet again as well as a little caramel. Honey sauce and liquorice

timer Finish

medium long, on more of the same
