Description
The Yamazaki Limited Edition 2016 is part of Suntory’s highly regarded annual series, created to highlight the craftsmanship and versatility of Japan’s first single malt distillery. This release brings together a selection of carefully chosen casks, including American oak, European oak and the prized Japanese Mizunara oak, resulting in a whisky of balance and refinement. Bottled at 43 percent, it opens with soft vanilla and honeyed sweetness before revealing dried fruits, gentle spice and the delicate incense note that Mizunara imparts. Released for a short time and only in limited quantities, the 2016 edition offers both collectors and enthusiasts a glimpse into Yamazaki’s artistry, capturing the elegance and complexity that define the distillery’s modern style.
