Suntory Yamazaki 12 Year Old with Wooden Box is a timeless single malt whisky that captures the refined artistry of Japan’s oldest malt distillery. Matured for a minimum of 12 years in a harmonious blend of American oak, Spanish oak, and rare Japanese Mizunara casks, this exquisite expression offers a deep, multi-layered profile that’s both elegant and complex and beautifully presented in a collector’s wooden gift box.

Founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii, the Yamazaki Distillery is nestled on the misty outskirts of Kyoto, where pure waters and a unique climate create ideal aging conditions. As the birthplace of Japanese whisky, Yamazaki is renowned for its balanced craftsmanship and pioneering spirit, consistently winning global acclaim and elevating Japanese whisky to world-class status.

Yamazaki 12 Year Old delivers an aromatic bouquet of honeyed peaches, dried apricot, and Japanese incense, layered with hints of clove and toasted oak. On the palate, it’s smooth and medium-bodied, opening with notes of golden raisin and spiced apple, followed by hints of coconut, cinnamon, and Mizunara sandalwood. The finish is long and subtly smoky, with lingering sweet fruit and oak.
