Description
A selection of four boundary-pushing Japanese single malts from Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries. This selection celebrates each stage of whisky production, honouring each element- raw ingredient selection, peating levels, fermentation, distillation and maturation- with equal grace.
The Yamazaki Golden Promise celebrates Scottish Golden Promise barley with its expressly rich malty finish.
The Yamazaki Islay Peated Malt honours Islay's historic peated tradition borne from the unique water and maturation processes of the Island.
Yamazaki Mizunara Aged 18 Years demonstrates the patience and expertise of its blenders who discovered Mizunara casks impart their best flavours when better aged.
Finally, The Hakushu Peated Malt Aged 18 Years demonstrates with elegance how House of Suntory blenders have harnessed Hakushu’s climate to unveil intricate layers of flavour from the peated malt’s robust smoke character.

About the Distillery:
Yamazaki distillery is a Japanese whisky distillery located in Shimamoto, Osaka Prefecture, Japan. Opened in 1923, and owned by Suntory, it was Japan's first commercial whisky distillery. Seven thousand bottles of unblended malt whisky are on display in its Whisky Library.
The company founder and chairman of Kotobukiya wanted to produce a serious whisky and therefore hired Taketsuru Masataka, whom he appointed factory director of the Yamazaki distillery in 1924. This descendant of a sake brewing family from the 17th century was in Scotland in 1918. He traveled to study at Glasgow University and learned how to make Scotch whisky on site. He married a Scottish girl, Jessie Roberta Cowan, who went to Japan with him in 1920. Under Taketsuru the production of the first whisky was completed in 1929, which was sold as shirofuda. Due to differences with Torii, Taketsuru left the company in 1934 and founded the Daju-Nippon Kaju KK company , later called Nikka Whisky Distilling, in Hokkaidō in the same year.
