Suntory The Essence of Suntory Yamazaki 2009 Golden Promise Japanese Single Malt Whisky (2021) 50cl

Discover the Yamazaki Golden Promise, an exquisite addition to The Essence of Suntory Whisky series, celebrating the mastery and innovation of Japan’s oldest whisky distillery. This special release is crafted using the rare "Golden Promise" barley, known for imparting a rich, creamy texture and depth of flavor. Distilled at Yamazaki and matured in select barrels, this whisky reveals a balanced profile of fruit, spice, and gentle oak, showcasing the signature elegance of Japanese whisky.

On the nose, enjoy aromas of ripe apples, honey, and delicate floral hints, while the palate unfolds with notes of vanilla, subtle spice, and a velvety, full-bodied mouthfeel. The finish is long, lingering with sweet malt and soft oak. Part of a limited-edition series, Yamazaki Golden Promise is a true collector's item and a testament to Suntory’s dedication to quality and tradition.

The Golden Promise barley, once popular in Scotch whisky production, is now rare due to its lower yield, but it’s treasured for creating richly textured whiskies with unique character.

Please note, this bottle is not to be mistaken with the latest Yamazaki Golden Promise from the Tsukuriwake Edition 2024, which features a different blend and maturation process.
