Yamazakura Pure Malt is a Japanese malt whisky from Sasanokawa Shuzo, bottled at 48% in a 70cl bottle. Pure Malt means that no grain whisky is used in the vatting. It combines malts matured in virgin oak, ex-bourbon casks and sherry casks, reportedly for over five years, along with a peated malt component at 50 ppm. The nose is sweet caramel, green apple, banana and cherry crumble pie. The palate shows clear sherry notes with creamy vanilla and nuts, and a subtle peat arrives towards the finish.

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.
