Yamazakura Gift Set 50 cl + 6 Whisky Stones

Description

The Yamazakura Gift Set 50 cl + 6 whisky stones is a celebration of Japanese distilling expertise and craftsmanship. Produced by Sasanokawa Shuzo, the oldest sake brewery in the Tohoku region, founded in 1765, this set embodies centuries-old tradition combined with contemporary innovation.

Yamazakura Blend whisky is made from a careful selection of four malt and grain whiskies, chosen for their smooth, delicate profiles. The name "Yamazakura" combines "Yama" meaning "mountain" and "Sakura" (written here as "Zakura"), a reference to Japan's emblematic cherry tree, symbolising ephemeral beauty and nature.

To the eye, this blend has a luminous golden colour. The nose is soft and delicate, revealing aromas of elderflower, malt, caramel and a hint of iodine. On the palate, the texture is light and oily, with flavours of pear, cereal, vanilla and citrus. The finish is balanced, with hints of iodine and vanilla.

The six whisky stones included in the box are designed to refresh your drink without diluting it, preserving the integrity of the aromas and flavours. Made from natural stone, they can be placed in the freezer before use and are easy to clean after each tasting.

This set is ideal for whisky lovers wishing to discover or rediscover the charm of Japanese blends, or as a gift for a connoisseur. It reflects the harmony between tradition and modernity that is so characteristic of Japanese culture.
