Introducing the Yuza Distillery's first edition 2022 Single Malt Japanese Whisky, a true masterpiece that embodies the distillery's philosophy of "TLAS" (Tiny, Lovely, Authentic and Supreme). Established in 2018, Yuza Distillery is located in Yamagata, overlooking the Sea of Japan. This small and charming distillery benefits from the high-quality water from the mountain stream of Mt. Chokai and the fresh, pure air to produce its whisky.
Founded in 1950, Kinryu Corporation, the owner of Yuza Distillery, was initially a joint venture funded by nine local sake producers. The company started by making neutral spirits and later moved on to producing and selling shochu. However, with the decline in shochu (and sake) consumption over the years, the company decided to venture into whisky production and established a brand new distillery in the city of Yuza. The first distillation took place in November 2018.
The whisky produced by Yuza Distillery adheres to "Japanese whisky" and meets "The Standards for Labeling Japanese Whisky" set by the Japan Spirits & Liqueurs Makers Association. This ensures that the entire process of making the whisky, from malting, fermenting, and distilling, takes place in Japan.
This Yuza First Edition 2022 is the distillery's first official bottling and a collector's item. This whisky is a testament to the distillery's commitment to producing authentic and supreme whisky, with delicate notes of vanilla and honey, balanced with fruity and malty flavors. Experience the true taste of Japanese whisky with this exceptional bottle.
The ABV of Yuza 2018 Single Malt Japanese Whisky is 61%.
There were 8,500 bottles produced for the Yuza 2018 Single Malt Japanese Whisky.

The Yuza 2018 61% 700ml whisky is a remarkable first edition from Yuza Distillery. While the price point might be a bit high, the quality and craftsmanship are evident in every sip. It offers a balanced profile with prominent notes of vanilla and coconut, making it a delightful addition to any whisky collection. Truly, it's a testament to the distillery's dedication to authentic Japanese whisky making.
