About this whisky
- Region:
Yamazaki 12 Year Old represents a pivotal moment in Japanese whisky history, originating from the nation’s first dedicated distillery founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii. Nestled between Osaka and Kyoto, the distillery’s diverse stills – employing both direct and steam heating – yield a remarkable spectrum of spirit styles. This single malt, first released in 1984, offers a delicate balance of fruit and subtle spice, characteristic of the Yamazaki profile. At 43% ABV, it presents a smooth and complex taste, reflecting the unique climate and craftsmanship of its Japanese origins.
