Description
Founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii, Yamazaki is Japan's first bona fide whisky distillery. Sitting in between Osaka and Kyoto - served by the converging rivers of Katsura, Uji, and Kizu - the stills are varied in shape, size, lyne arm position and some are direct-fired while others are steam-heated. Yamazaki 18 Year Old is an award-winning Japanese single malt, aged for 18 years in a combination of American, Spanish sherry, and Japanese Mizunara oak casks. The single malt was launched in 1992.
