I wonder why the comment is in 2009 while the bottle released in 2012...
Yamazaki Yummy Cask, 94/100.
This is a fantastic, someone bought me a bottle for my birthday, one of the best presents I have ever been given. The smell alone is incredibly delicious, so smooth and very easy to drink. Love it
Smooth and sweet whisky, very similar to the 18yo Yamazaki. Sweet nose, quite interesting. Different intensity of the taste compared to its cousin, I found it slightly more subtle. Overall very similar to the 18yo (which I still give an extra mark or two) but one of the best I have tried so far. Highly recommended!
