✨ Tekniske specifikationer

Suntory Old Whisky, affectionately known as "Daruma" due to its distinctive round, black bottle resembling the traditional Japanese wishing doll, is one of Japan's most historic and iconic blended whiskies. First introduced in 1950, it became a symbol of Japan's rapid post-war economic resurgence and a staple of the country's vibrant nightlife and salaryman culture. Crafted using a blend of malt and grain whiskies primarily sourced from Suntory's legendary Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries, it is celebrated for its smooth, medium-bodied profile. The spirit delivers rich aromas of sweet vanilla, oak, and dried fruits, balanced by a gentle touch of peat smoke and a warm, harmonious finish that reflects Suntory's signature blending philosophy.

🍾 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.
