✨ Tekniske specifikationer
This highly collectible release is not a traditional grape wine, but rather a prestigious commemorative blended Japanese whisky produced by Suntory to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Suntory Open Golf Tournament, which was established in 1973. Suntory has a long-standing tradition of releasing exquisite, custom-designed ceramic decanters for this annual sporting event, making them highly prized by collectors. This special bottling contains a masterfully crafted blend of malt and grain whiskies sourced from Suntory's legendary Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries. It showcases the signature Suntory style of elegant harmony, featuring gentle oak influence, subtle orchard fruit notes, and a whisper of peat, reflecting the pristine waters and unique microclimates of Japan's premier distilling regions.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Suntory blev grundlagt i 1899 af Shinjiro Torii i Osaka, Japan. Huset startede oprindeligt som en beskeden vinhandel, men revolutionerede siden drikkevareverdenen, da de i 1923 grundlagde Yamazaki Distillery og dermed banede vejen for autentisk japansk whisky. Drevet af pionerånden 'Yatte Minahare' – modet til at drømme stort og favne dristige udfordringer – udviklede huset en filosofi forankret i sublimt håndværk og en dyb ærefrygt for naturen. Gennem årtierne voksede Suntory til et globalt kraftcenter, som udvidede sit repertoire til også at omfatte førsteklasses vin, gin, likører og internationale spirituskategorier via strategiske opkøb i Skotland, Europa og Nordamerika. I dag er producenten verdensberømt for sine harmoniske og ikoniske kreationer – anført af den internationalt hyldede Hibiki-serie af blended whisky, raffinerede single malts og en mangfoldig portefølje af helstøbt, balanceret spiritus.
