Suntory’s flagship distillery, Yamazaki was founded by Shinjiro Torii in 1923. The town of Yamazaki was chosen to be the site of Japan’s first commercial distillery due to its very ‘Scottish’ climate, and with it being an area where three rivers converge. In its early days, Yamazaki produced both malt and grain for Suntory's blends, but the opening of the Chita distillery in 1972 allowed the company to focus on its single malt brand. It is now one of the world's most desirable. The first spirit ran from the stills in 1924, on 11th November at 11:11am.
Selected from the finest barrels in the Yamazaki aging warehouses in celebration of the life of Keizo Saji and his receipt of the Order of the Sacred Treasure.
Bottled in 1989, the whisky is exclusively of 25 years or older but is otherwise 'Age Unknown' and drawn from the Yamazaki reserve stock. Some sources estimate the stock to be older than 30 years.
