Yamazaki Limited Edition 2022 70cl is a highly sought-after single malt whisky from Yamazaki Distillery, Japan’s first commercial whisky distillery, founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii and now owned by Suntory. This special 2022 limited-edition release highlights the distillery’s signature use of rare Mizunara (Japanese oak) casks. Matured in fresh Mizunara oak, it showcases the unique aromatic qualities this wood imparts. On the nose, it is intensely fruity with prominent notes of banana, apple, peach, coconut, and vanilla. The palate is creamy and fruit-forward, beautifully balanced by Mizunara’s distinctive wood spice, subtle incense, and gentle tannin structure. A refined and aromatic expression that perfectly embodies Yamazaki’s elegant house style, this limited release is a must-have for Japanese whisky enthusiasts and collectors.
