The Yamazaki Single Malt

 

This is excellent. It’s been on my wishlist to try, but being about twice the price of what I normally spend, I hadn’t got round to buying it. Fortunately for me, a friend of mine brought me back a small bottle from Japan 🙂

It’s sweet, but not too sweet, it’s has some burn, but it’s not harsh, and the taste lingers nicely, with no horrible aftertaste. The sweetness is from fruit flavours, rather than honey or caramel, and it makes for a very tasty, and smooth drink. This is definitely one of my favourites, and would happily buy a full bottle, although maybe as a treat, or for a special occasion if reduced in the supermarket.
