product Details

Yamazaki 25 Year Old pre-2021

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.

Launched in 1999, this version of the 25 year old is matured exclusively in the finest Oloroso sherry casks. The age-statement was eventually revamped in 2021 as a blend of whiskies from American, European and Mizunara oak.
