Tasting Notes

Colour: Golden amber. This is an inference based on the whisky’s bourbon-cask maturation and reviewed product imagery.

Nose: Delicate plum, honey, vanilla, and ripe orchard fruit, with a softly sweet bourbon-cask lift. The plum, honey, and vanilla are supported by reviewed tasting notes, while the orchard-fruit wording is supported by the peach, apricot, apple, and prune profile in the reviewed product description.

Palate: Fruity and rounded, with orange marmalade, vanilla, peach, apricot, apple, and hints of French toast. The orange marmalade, vanilla, and French toast are supported by reviewed tasting notes, while the ripe fruit detail is supported by the reviewed product description.

Finish: Medium in length, with cereals, candied fruit, and lingering vanilla sweetness. The cereal and candied-fruit notes are supported by reviewed tasting notes, while the medium-length feel is an inference from the overall profile and age.

Description

Yamazakura Asaka Single Malt 2023 Release 70cl, 46% is a Japanese single malt produced in a pot still at Asaka Distillery and aged for three years in bourbon casks. Your site describes it as full of bright, ripe fruit, with notes of peach, apricot, apple, and prunes, giving it a fresh but characterful style rather than a heavily oaked or smoky one.

This 2023 Release is a limited-edition distillery bottling with a stated outturn of 3,000 bottles. Reviewed release details also describe it as unchill-filtered and natural colour, which fits the modern premium style of the bottle and helps keep the whisky’s texture and presentation more authentic.
