This is a single cask Yamazaki from Suntory's Owner's Cask programme, which ran from 2004 to 2010 and offered private buyers whole casks of matured Yamazaki spirit. Cask #1S70430 is a sherry butt, distilled in 1991 and bottled in 2008 at 17 years old and a natural cask strength of 59%. It yielded 471 bottles. The nose offers raisins, cocoa, bitter chocolate, acidic plum, roasted coffee and dry wood. The palate has intense chocolate, mandarin citrus, coffee acidity and dry prunes, with a rough, gripping texture. The finish is strongly spiced with clove and star anise, alongside cocoa, dark chocolate and raisins.

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.
