The Yushan Single Malt Whisky Sherry Cask is smooth and sweet, scented with the classic fragrance of the Oloroso casks it was aged in.

More About Yushan
Named after the highest mountain in Taiwan, Yushan (玉山威士忌) represents high-quality, authentic, and meticulously crafted Taiwanese whiskies. Originating from Nantou Distillery (台灣南投酒廠) at the heart of Taiwan, Yushan whiskies are made from imported Scottish malt and the fresh spring water of Taiwan’s Central Mountain Range. Combining the traditional whisky distilling process with Nantou’s natural geographic and climatic advantages, Nantou Distillery is able to produce premium, fully matured whisky in merely four years, notable for their natural amber color, rich flavors, and tropical Taiwanese fruit aromas.
