Japanese Blended Whisky

Distillery
Only 1992 bottles of this rare expression are made available for the European market. This very limited release gets its name from two Japanese symbols. “Yama” is indeed the Japanese term for mountain while “Sakura” refers to cherry-trees, symbolizing ephemeral beauty. Yamazakura takes its Japanese heritage to the highest heights!

TECHNICAL DETAILS
Matured in Bourbon barrels for 16 years, then transferred to specific tanks and finally back to Bourbon casks again to finish up for a few months. Mashbill: 20% malted barley & 80% corn.
