Yamazakura Kuyuri Peated Blended Whisky 46% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

The Yamazakura Kuyuri Peated Blended Whisky is a fascinating example of modern Japanese whisky craftsmanship. Produced by the venerable Sasanokawa Shuzo Distillery, this bottling combines decades of experience with the contemporary approach of blending smoky whiskies with Japanese elegance. The name "Kuyuri" – inspired by gently falling snow – symbolizes the balance of power and purity embodied by this Japanese blended whisky.

With an alcohol content of 46% ABV, this peated whisky is intense yet balanced. The smoke is present, yet subtly integrated – typical of the Japanese style, which emphasizes harmony rather than dominance. The blend of carefully selected malt and grain whiskies matured in oak casks and was bottled without chill filtration to preserve the full spectrum of aromas. The stylish gift packaging completes the high-quality impression and makes this whisky a special discovery for lovers of smoky whiskies.

Tasting notes:

Color: Golden yellow with a gentle amber hue.
Nose: Subtle peat smoke, accompanied by dried fruits, vanilla, light wood, and floral notes.
Palate: Harmonious and smooth with well-integrated smoke, honey sweetness, spices, citrus nuances, and light oak spice.
Finish: Medium-length, dry, and smoky with elegant warmth and a delicate finish.

Yamazakura Kuyuri Peated Whisky is perfect for sipping neat or with a few drops of water to emphasize its delicate nuances. It also unfolds its character in a high-quality smoky highball or Japanese-inspired cocktail. It pairs particularly well with grilled salmon, teriyaki chicken, umami-rich dishes, or dark chocolate with sea salt. A refined choice for lovers of Japanese whisky with a peaty note and stylish restraint.
