product Details

Yamazaki 2008 Refill Sherry Cask 50cl / The Essence of Suntory

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.

Part of the 2019 additions to The Essence of Suntory Whisky series, this is a refill sherry cask matured single malt, produced at their flagship Yamazaki distillery.
