The oldest distillery in Japan yamazaki distillery from the house of suntory whisky.A harmonious balance between Japanese people and nature, Yamazaki is a pioneer of Japanese whisky. Born 100 years ago on the outskirts of Kyoto, Yamazaki is the first and oldest malt whisky distillery in Japan. Its signature, multi-layered taste is delicate enough for a Japanese palate and complex enough for global connoisseurs. The Yamazaki distillery sits at the convergence of three rivers in a region known for its misty climate, pristine waters, and diverse temperatures. From these ideal conditions--and the skilled artisans--emerges a rich and round-bodied single malt whisky: the Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve. Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve presents an ideal first step into the world of premium Japanese single malt whisky. Yamazaki's heritage and signature flavor are on full display with this expression. Profound yet smooth, Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve is a single malt with a round-bodied and mature taste. Fresh and fruity, the Distiller's Reserve single malt is filled with notes of strawberry and cherry and a touch of coconut on the nose. With each sip, an abundance of fruit comes through: raspberries, white peach, and red currents blend on the palate. The aromatic experience of the Distiller's Reserve is topped off by a clear, smooth finish of sweet vanilla with a hint of cinnamon. Yamazaki is the number 1 single malt whisky in Japan (IWSR 2022) and beloved across the world. Fruit-forward with subtle smoke, the Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve can be the start to Yamazaki journey for years to come.Disclaimer
