100th Anniversary Limited Edition. This Yamazaki Mizunara Single Malt is comprised of meticulously selected malt whiskies all aged for a minimum of 18 years in solely Mizunara casks, created in honor of Suntory Whisky's centenary. The result showcases the rare, distinctive beauty of Mizunara oak, which is considered the signature “enhancer” of Yamazaki, providing unique Japanese character and elegance. We invite you to experience this distinct and elegant single malt whisky.

Launched as part of the distillery’s Yamazaki range, Yamazaki 18 Year Old Mizunara (Alc 48%) is a single malt aged in rare Mizunara oak casks. Suntory first began experimenting with Mizunara cask finishes in the 1940s, with earlier expressions produced by Master Blenders Shinjiro Torii and Keizo Saji.

Current chief blender Shinji Fukuyo said: ‘Yamazaki 18 Year Old Mizunara features a rich texture created from a long ageing process. This expresses the delicate and meticulous attention to detail that went into its craftsmanship. I believe this whisky embodies the founding family’s spirit to pursue quality.’

Lingering and elegant, Yamazaki 18 Year Old Mizunara has aromas of black cherry and ripe stone fruit, with spice notes that continue onto the palate, joined by exotic base tones of incense, sandalwood and coconut.
