Description

A historic Japanese whisky company, originally founded as Torii Shoten in 1899. It was renamed Kotobukiya in 1921, and again to Suntory after its flagship whisky brand in 1963. It has since become one of the world's largest spirits multinationals and was renamed Suntory Holdings Ltd in 2009. This particular release is a blended Japanese whisky presented in a distinctive Pagoda-shaped decanter, first launched in 1969 to commemorate Suntory's 70th anniversary. It is believed to contain malts from Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries and grain whisky from Chita.
