    Cask type

    Ex Awamori

    This limited edition Glenfiddich release is the first Single Malt scotch whisky finished in Japanese Ex-Awamori casks. It is housed in an elegant whisky box with sakura imagery, and a hanko stamp engraved bespoke stopper, a cloth capsule with a poem which are included for a complete gifting experience.

    Awamori, a rice spirit from Okinawa, is exquisite in its rarity, indelible in its memory. It’s for this reason after ageing in oak casks for 29 years, Glenfiddich Grand Yozakura is finished in these rare Awamori casks, to give an unforgettable taste. 

    A surge of ripe fruits and caramelised almonds fill the nose, before indulgent layers of toasted oak and creamy vanilla mingle with spice and sherbet, rippling on the tongue before a final crescendo of oak on the finish. It’s delicate, distinctive and just like Yozakura, once experienced, is never forgotten.
