Earlier Edition around 2006. Distilled and Bottled at Yamazaki Distillery
Bottle number 8937. Good label. Level: into neck. -

'Colour: my God this one is dark! Nose: whiffs of varnish at first nosing, soon to disappear. Starts then on heavy notes of plum sauce and high-end balsamic vinegar, wine sauce, prunes and armagnac. Just superb. We have also lots of salty liquorice, game and coffee. Really concentrated, to say the least. Mouth: here's a very heavy sherry, with lots of bitter chocolate, coffee, very ripe kiwis and cinnamon. Gets just a little drying (flour). Goes on with orange liqueur, hawthorn tea... As concentrated as on the nose – I can't imagine what it would be at cask strength (but we'll have an idea - see below)! Very long finish, with a great kind of sourness. Brilliant whisky at just 43%, for 'concentrated' people ;-)' (5 Stars-Whiskyfun)
「酒色：我的天，色很深！酒香：初聞有陣陣清漆味，而很快散去。接着透出濃郁梅子醬、高級黑醋、葡萄酒醬汁、西梅乾和雅文邑白蘭地的味道。就是極好；還有很多鹹甘草、野味和咖啡。無容置疑，真的很濃郁。口味：雪莉酒味重，有很多苦朱古力、咖啡、熟透的奇異果和肉桂。稍微乾燥（麵粉），接續有橙酒、山楂茶味......如酒香一樣濃厚——我無法想像原桶強度會是怎樣（但我們有個想法——看下去）！餘韻十分悠長，帶怡人酸味。酒精度僅 43% 的優質威士忌，適合『全力以赴』的人士 ;-」（ Whiskyfun：5星）
