What it tastes like.
Yamazakura Asaka Single Malt is a refined Japanese whisky crafted at the Asaka Distillery in Fukushima Prefecture.
Distilled entirely from malted barley, it undergoes a double distillation process in traditional pot stills. Aged for a minimum of three years in ex-bourbon casks, the whisky develops a harmonious balance of sweetness and malt character. The flavor profile features notes of honey, citrus, vanilla, and floral hints, complemented by a subtle peppery finish.
Bottled at 46% ABV, it offers a smooth and elegant tasting experience, reflecting the distillery's commitment to craftsmanship.

Before you open it.
A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.
How should I store it before opening?
Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.
How long will it keep once opened?
Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.
Can I ask for a similar bottle?
Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.
How is it packed for delivery?
Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.
What about hot weather shipping?
The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.
