Suntory Yamazaki 10 Year Old

This was my introduction to the world of Japanese malts, and to be honest it set me in good stead for the tastes to come. Since trying this i have preferred the whiskies of Japan, enjoying various Nikka, Hakushu and of course Yamazaki malts.

It starts smooth, as i find most Japanese whiskies are, very easy to drink, but without the kick, strength and power you tend to find with older malts. The smell isnt over-powering at all, drawing you in from the moment you open the bottle, and gives you a taste of the joy that can be open to you if you spend the time to work your way through the other Japanese malts.

I enjoyed it and as i mentioned i found it a good way to start with Japanese whiskies. With that in mind, if you havent tried any, then this would be a very good starting point!
