This lot contains two bottles of Japanese Whisky including The Yamazaki 12 Year Old Single Malt, The Hakushu 12 Year Old Single Malt.
Yamazaki
Age: 12 Years Old
Cask Type: Mizunara
43% ABV / 70cl
Founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii, Yamazaki is Japan's first bona fide whisky distillery. Sitting in between Osaka and Kyoto - served by the converging rivers of Katsura, Uji, and Kizu - the stills are varied in shape, size, lyne arm position and some are direct-fired while others are steam-heated. All of which allows for a creation of many different styles of spirit destined for blending as well as bottling as single malt.
Hakushu
Age: 12 Years Old
43% ABV / 70cl
From Suntory's mountain distillery which is found deep within the forests of Mount Kaikomagatake, Hakushu is owned by Suntory; founders of the first Japanese distillery, Yamazaki. The original Hakushu distillery was built in 1973, with another distillery building called Hakushu Higashi (West) added in 1981. Like the environment in which it is created, the Suntory Hakushu is vibrant and verdant in flavour born of the ideas of second master blender, Keizo Saji.
