Yamazaki 18 Year Old Limited Edition Japanese Whisky Suntory’s flagship distillery, Yamazaki was founded by Shinjiro Torii in 1923. The town of Yamazaki was chosen to be the site of Japan’s first commercial distillery due to its very ‘Scottish’ climate, and with it being an area where three rivers converge. In its early days, Yamazaki produced both malt and grain for Suntory's blends, but the opening of the Chita distillery in 1972 allowed the company to focus on its single malt brand. It is now one of the world's most desirable. The first spirit ran from the stills in 1924, on 11th November at 11:11am. The 18 year old was introduced to the core range in 1992. It is a vatting of 80% sherry butt matured whiskies, with the remainder from Japanese Mizunara and American oak. Only produced in 700ml bottles.

Bought the best early, 18 year Ltd Ed Yamazaki. When my good friend retires we’ll see whether he chooses to open this bottle or it gets stashed away as an investment. His recent bottle of 12 yr Yamazaki got hit hard and fast. That was the smoothest cleanest purest most delicious whisky ever poured, in my humble opinion. Time stood still when it was being tasted.
