✨ Technical Specifications
Yamazaki, established in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii near Kyoto, is the birthplace of Japanese whisky. The distillery's location at the foot of Mount Tennozan offers exceptionally pure, soft water where three rivers meet, creating a humid, misty microclimate ideal for cask maturation. This highly collectible limited edition features the 'Mizuhiki' seal, a traditional Japanese hand-tied paper cord symbolizing connection and celebration. The single malt itself showcases Yamazaki's signature multi-cask maturation, blending whiskies aged in rare Japanese Mizunara oak, Spanish sherry casks, and American oak. The result is an incredibly complex profile defined by notes of sandalwood, incense, dried fruits, and elegant spice.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1923 by Suntory founder Shinjiro Torii, the Yamazaki Distillery stands at the foot of Mount Tennozan in Shimamoto, Osaka, as Japan's pioneering commercial malt whisky distillery. Situated where the Katsura, Uji, and Kizu rivers converge, the site was specifically selected for its exceptionally soft, pristine water and misty, humid microclimate that provides optimal conditions for barrel maturation. Yamazaki is renowned for its versatile production methodology, deploying washbacks of both wood and stainless steel, uniquely shaped copper pot stills, and a diverse cask regime featuring Japanese Mizunara oak, American oak, and Spanish ex-sherry butts. The distillery is celebrated globally for its layered, multi-dimensional single malt whiskies, most famously its flagship 12- and 18-Year-Old expressions characterized by complex notes of tropical fruit, sandalwood, and delicate spice.
