Saburomaru V The Hierophant is a heavily peated Japanese single malt from Saburomaru Distillery in Tonami, Toyama Prefecture. It is the sixth release in the distillery's tarot-themed series. The whisky was distilled in 2021 and bottled in 2024 at 48%. Mature ale yeast is combined with fresh whisky yeast to give a fuller, rounder spirit. The nose has smoke, seaweed, straw, pear and a little cured ham. The palate is soft, with seaweed, sweet malt, lemon peel and black tea candy, and the finish is lingering, with gentle peat smoke, ash and sweet malt.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
