✨ wine.spec_sheet
Suntory Royal was first introduced in 1960 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the company's founding, representing the crowning achievement and final blend of Suntory's legendary founder, Shinjiro Torii. The 'SR' designation denotes a classic, highly sought-after mid-century expression of this historic blend, crafted primarily with single malts from the Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries. The iconic bottle shape is inspired by the traditional Shinto 'torii' gate, particularly the one standing at the entrance to the Yamazaki Distillery. This 'Queen Size' release refers to the larger 1000ml bottling format, often presented in collectible multi-bottle sets. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious, classic Japanese profile characterized by rich dried fruits, gentle oak spices, vanilla, and a faint whisper of peat smoke, reflecting Torii's lifelong quest to create a whisky that perfectly complements the delicate Japanese palate.

Founded in 1899 by Shinjiro Torii in Osaka, Japan, Suntory has grown from a pioneering wine importer into a global powerhouse of fine wines and spirits. While world-renowned for its legendary whisky blending heritage—exemplified by iconic labels like Hibiki and Suntory Old Whisky—the company has also championed Japanese viticulture since acquiring the historic Tomi No Oka Winery in Yamanashi in 1936. Embracing a philosophy of harmony between Japanese nature and craftsmanship, Suntory produces elegant, terroir-driven red and white wines alongside its celebrated spirits portfolio. Today, their wine-making legacy spans from the slopes of Mount Fuji to prestigious estates in Bordeaux, reflecting an uncompromising commitment to quality and innovation.
