The Story
Islay peat imparts one of scotch whisky’s most distinctive flavors, venerated globally for its distinctive smokiness. The Yamazaki Islay Peated Malt balances the smoky quality with a characteristic sweetness, borne from the unique water and maturation processes that define Yamazaki whisky. This marriage of traditions is especially present on the nose, where gentle smoke meets a hint of biscuit.
- Color: Bright gold
- Nose: Gently smoky with a hint of biscuit
- Palate: Smooth and sweet like brown sugar, followed by citrus of bitter orange
- Finish: Warm, slow and sweetly smoky
