✨ wine.spec_sheet
Crafted at Japan's oldest distillery, founded by Shinjiro Torii in 1923, the Yamazaki 25 Year Old Single Malt is a masterpiece of Japanese spirits heritage. Situated at the confluence of three rivers—the Katsura, Uji, and Kizu—the distillery benefits from a unique, humid microclimate and exceptionally soft water, which are vital to its signature smooth profile. This ultra-rare expression is aged for a quarter-century, primarily in Oloroso sherry casks, imparting a deep amber hue and an incredibly complex profile of dried fruits, dark chocolate, and aromatic wood. The highly collectible Bill Amberg edition elevates this liquid gold by housing it in a bespoke, hand-crafted leather case designed by the renowned British artisan, symbolizing a harmonious bridge between traditional Japanese distillation and classic European craftsmanship.
