Yoichi 1988 single cask

Though aged in virgin American oak it’s distillery character that’s in charge here; a fully expressive Yoichi. Rich mysterious layered mixing rich fruit compote with scented coastal smoke (ozone tar soot) alongside masses of vetiver and cigar humidor. The palate is oily and immense with fluxing layers of sweet fruit oily peat salt and ink; camphor flax seed and in among the smoke apple mint. Long insanely complex and jaw-droppingly good. This will go down as a classic. €185
