The Yamazaki Tsukuriwake Selection 2022 is a masterclass in the art of Japanese whisky blending, celebrating 'diversity in the making'—the core philosophy of Suntory's legendary Yamazaki Distillery. Established in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii on the outskirts of Kyoto, Yamazaki is Japan's oldest malt whisky distillery, situated where the Katsura, Uji, and Kizu rivers meet to create a misty, humid microclimate ideal for wood maturation. This limited-edition full set showcases the four essential pillars of Yamazaki's flavor profile: Puncheon (American oak), Peated Malt, Spanish Oak, and the highly coveted, indigenous Mizunara Oak. Each expression reveals how distinct cask selections and malt treatments shape the spirit, reflecting a century of meticulous craftsmanship, innovative distillation, and deep reverence for nature.

Owned by Suntory, the distillery is globally celebrated for its pioneering craftsmanship and innovative maturation process, which utilizes a diverse array of cask types including Spanish sherry casks, American white oak, and rare Japanese Mizunara oak. Yamazaki's signature style is characterized by a complex, multi-layered fruitiness and deep, spicy incense-like aromas, epitomized by legendary expressions such as their Single Malt 12 and 18 Years Old.
