Description

The Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve is a non-age-statement single malt Japanese whisky from Suntory's Yamazaki Distillery, Japan's first and oldest malt distillery, founded in 1923. It is crafted by vatting whiskies matured in a combination of American oak, Sherry oak, Bordeaux wine casks, and rare Japanese Mizunara oak, with a touch of peated malt. This diverse cask selection yields a layered and fragrant whisky, showcasing the distinct character of Yamazaki's traditional house style. It was first released in 2014 and is considered an accessible entry into the Yamazaki range, emphasizing elegance and balance.
