Yamazaki 12

Country: Japan

Region:

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 43%

I usually have a bottle of this on my shelf. The nose is spicy, woody, and slightly malty. The taste is peppery with an underlying caramel-candy sweetness and a hint of molasses. The finish is peppery and lingering.
