Member Reviews and Ratings of Yamazaki 18 Year Old (Tasting sample)
Jacob,
One of my favorites.
Charles,
Incredible stuff. I was absolutely shocked.
Doug,
This is a really nice whiskey. It has all of the characteristics of a masterfully crafted whisky, including a smoothness and a long finish. I associate the finish more with coffee than dark chocolate and oak, but that's a good thing. Unfortunately, I do not think it lives up to the hype and current price. If I happened upon a bottle at half or even 2/3 the price, I'd jump on it, but that's just me. If you can afford the current ask, this is one to add to your collection.
Taysha,
Best whiskey yet...gave it a 9 only because I have a lot more to try
