Yamazakura Single Cask is a Japanese single malt from the Asaka distillery, founded in 2016 in the Fukushima region. The distillery presented its first single malt in 2019. This edition is in a 70cl bottle at 60% ABV. It comes from a single bourbon cask in which the whisky rested for 3 years, and is neither coloured nor chill-filtered. The nose offers yellow fruit, honey and vanilla. These carry on to the palate, joined by candied orange and brioche. The finish fades slowly to malted cereals and dried fruits.

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.
