The Yamazaki Sherry Cask 2009 is one of the most exclusive releases ever to come from Suntory’s flagship distillery and a bottling that helped cement Yamazaki’s reputation on the world stage. Matured entirely in carefully selected Spanish oak sherry casks, the whisky reveals extraordinary depth and intensity, with layers of rich dried fruits, dark chocolate, polished oak, and a lingering, spicy warmth. Bottled at 48 percent, it delivers a luxurious texture and complexity that unfolds with every sip. What makes this release truly exceptional is its scarcity and prestige. Produced in very limited numbers and released only in Japan, it quickly became a sought-after collector’s item long before Yamazaki won international awards for its sherry cask expressions. Today the 2009 bottling is regarded not only as a masterpiece of sherry maturation but also as a piece of modern whisky history, a rare and coveted expression that continues to command admiration and desire among the most discerning collectors worldwide.
