The Yamazaki Limited Edition 2016 is a rare and exquisite Japanese single malt whisky from the country’s oldest distillery. Crafted by master blender Shinji Fukuyo, this exclusive release combines meticulously selected whiskies aged for over 20 years in European oak sherry and port casks, complemented by younger single malts matured in American ex-bourbon barrels.
The result is a complex and harmonious whisky with a rich flavor profile. The nose reveals a bouquet of ripe fruits and subtle hints of cocoa, while the palate is exceptionally well-balanced with layers of sweetness and a touch of spice. The finish is long and velvety, leaving a lasting impression of elegance.
Presented in a beautifully designed bottle featuring imagery of Yamazaki’s historic maturation houses, this limited edition is a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs seeking the pinnacle of Japanese whisky craftsmanship.
