Scent Identifies Wine: Yamazaki's Aroma Kaleidoscope
Pick up your aroma glass, swirl it gently to allow the spirit to fully interact with the air. The aroma of Yamazaki whisky is like a kaleidoscope with distinct layers:
-
First impressions: You may first notice fresh fruity aromas , such as apple, pear, or even oriental notes of coconut or sandalwood from Mizunara barrel.
-
Deep sniff: As the alcohol evaporates, deeper aromas emerge, such as honey, vanilla, caramel sweetness, or delicate spices (such as cinnamon and cloves).
-
The unique imprint of Mizunara casks: What makes Yamazaki most captivating is the unique aroma imparted by its Mizunara casks —an oriental Zen-like blend of agarwood, galangal, and even incense , a signature characteristic that is difficult for other whiskies to imitate.
