The Yamazaki 12 Year Single Malt Whisky 100th Anniversary 750ml
| Description: | Manufacturer's Notes: The oldest distillery in Japan, from the House of Suntory Whisky. Suntory Whisky was founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii. For over three generations, Suntory's master blenders have devoted themselves to pursuing the harmony of Japanese nature and craftsmanship. Shaped through masterful technique and served with a reverence for Japanese omotenashi, Suntory whiskies are among the most awarded and admired in the world. Yamazaki is the pioneer of single malt Japanese whisky, born in Japan's first and oldest malt distillery. Established in 1923 by Suntory's founder Shinjiro Torii, the Yamazaki Distillery is the birthplace of Japanese whisky. Nestled proudly on the periphery of Kyoto, in a region formerly known as "Minaseno," Yamazaki is renowned for its soft waters. This incomparable quality, combined with Yamazaki's unique misty climate or varying temperature and humidity, provides the ideal conditions for making whisky. Here, its artisans pursue their founder's legacy through the art of "Tsukuriwake" -- the diversity in the making. Diverse fermentation, distillation and maturation techniques create the blending opportunities that are essential to achieving the signature subtle, refined and complex taste that is the Yamazaki Single Malt Japanese Whisky. Deep and multi-layered, Yamazaki is embraced as the authority of single malt Japanese whisky from the award winning House of Suntory Whisky. The 100th year anniversary limited edition design for Yamazaki 12 years old pays tribute to Yamazaki, the birthplace of Japanese Whisky. The illustration here captures the distillery in deep copper tones from a low angle, looking up. This perspective is a reminder to always keep our feet on the ground, never forget the past, and pay homage to our founder Shinjiro Torii's dream of making whisky blessed with the riches of Japanese nature and craftsmanship, to strive our excellence for the future. The subtle play on light and shadow symbolizes the sun, representing a future that is full of light shining on our soul place. Our simple wish for the bright future of all Suntory fans.
