The Yamazaki 18 YO Mizunara Single Malt Whisky is a limited edition release, crafted to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Suntory Whisky. This prestigious and rare whisky is comprised of meticulously selected malt whiskies, all aged for a minimum of 18 years in solely Mizunara (Japanese oak) casks. The result showcases the rare, distinctive beauty of Mizunara oak, which is considered the signature "enhancer" of Yamazaki, providing unique Japanese character and elegance.
Yamazaki, Japan's first and oldest malt distillery, was founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii and is located in a secluded location with particularly pure water sources. The whisky has a rich aroma of dark cherry and stone fruits, followed by delicate spice, with subtle flavors of cinnamon and plenty of fragrant Japanese incense leading to a long and lingering finish full of clove and sandalwood.
