【Product Introduction: A Return to Classic – The Mellow Beauty of Golden Malt】

"Golden Promise" malt was once the gold standard for Scotch whisky, known for its low yield but extremely high quality of oiliness and malty sweetness. In its 2024 "Craftsmanship Series," the Yamazaki distillery has specially launched this core expression featuring Golden Promise malt, aiming to revisit the fundamental deliciousness of whisky.

This limited edition is slowly aged in American oak casks, perfectly combining the unique "malty butteriness" of Golden Promise malt with the vanilla notes of American oak. Compared to regular Yamazaki, it boasts a more robust, sweet, and chewy body, making it a must-have for Japanese whisky enthusiasts looking to explore the impact of raw ingredients.

【Tasting Notes】

• Nose: Extremely sweet and pure malty aroma. Exudes notes of freshly baked barley biscuits, honey, butter cake, and vanilla bean. Followed by ripe pear, citrus, and a subtle hint of woody aroma.

• Palate: The body is incredibly smooth and rounded, with rich oiliness. Full of the sweetness of shortbread, malt sugar, and walnuts. The mid-palate reveals rich fruit layers and a balanced spiciness, with excellent structure.

• Finish: The finish is warm and long-lasting. It leaves a rich barley sweetness, delicate oak aromas, and a refreshing fruity aftertaste, providing immense comfort.
