Perfection is an illusion - but this Japanese masterpiece of a Single Malt certainly comes very close to it (bottle no. 11218). The nose of Yamazaki 25 is overwhelmingly complex and heavy with overripe strawberries, red roses, raisins, dried figs and a pleasant touch of old leather. After a sweet arrival, the taste rapidly turns peppery and mildly dry with Christmas spices, cloves and ginger. This whisky was matured in first-class sherry casks, leading to a prolonged, aromatic finish with delicate hints of coffee and cocoa. A superb sherry bomb with quality from start to finish.
