Yamazaki Sherry Cask 2016

Yamazaki Sherry Cask 2016 remains elegant and refined. Sherry Cask 2016 is a challenging dram, revealing different flavors with each sip, from sweet fruit to hints of smoke to tart acidity. The Yamazaki Sherry Cask release stands at the top end of Yamazaki’s line of Japanese Single Malts. With the 2013 release having been named World Whisky of the Year in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2015, this is a hugely anticipated release of Sherried Japanese whisky. Just 5,000 of these sought-after bottles will be available worldwide.
