What does it taste like?
Yamazaki 12 is fruit-forward, rounded and smoke-light. Its clearest signposts are peach, incense, soft oak. The profile is not a laboratory measurement; it is a practical way to compare its direction with other whiskeys.
How to approach it
Let it sit for a few minutes. Fruit-led aromas often become clearer with a little air and without serving the whiskey too cold.
