Description

Suntory Very Rare Old Whisky is a highly sought-after Japanese blended whisky known for its quality and flavor profile. This blend was first produced in the 1940s and remained popular until the 1980s. It is often considered a pleasant, approachable whisky, especially for those new to Japanese whisky, offering a sweeter, more fruit-forward style. Distilled and bottled by Suntory Limited, often at the Yamazaki distillery, it is characterized by complex and nuanced flavors and aromas. This particular product is part of a 1980s gift set that also includes Mateus Wine.
