Maker Yuza Distillery was established in 2018 in Yamagata Prefecture, marking Japan’s first whisky distillery in this region. It is the brainchild of Masaharu Sasaki, who sought to create a whisky that combined traditional Japanese whisky-making techniques with the best influences from Scotland. The distillery’s collaboration with Forsyths, the world-renowned Scottish still manufacturer, ensures the use of high-quality, custom-designed distillation equipment, including Canadian Douglas Fir washbacks and a Glendronach-inspired spirit still. The small, specialised operation focuses solely on single malt production, utilising the pristine water from Mount Chōkai and mature ex-Bourbon and Sherry casks. While it is still early days for Yuza, the distillery has already earned recognition for its meticulous attention to detail and its commitment to quality over quantity. Every batch produced is a testament to the craft of its team, which is dedicated to creating whiskies that will stand the test of time. Philosophy Yuza Distillery’s philosophy is built around the concept of creating authentic Japanese whisky that stands on its own, offering a unique expression of its environment. By focusing on small-batch production, each whisky reflects the pure water from the snowmelt of Mount Chōkai and the distinctive terroir of the region. Their commitment to traditional distilling techniques—combined with innovation—allows them to produce whisky that offers a sense of place and purity in every drop. The distillery is dedicated to sustainability and craftsmanship, using 100% barley sourced from Crisp Maltings and gradually introducing local barley into their grain mix. Yuza’s commitment to single malt production is paired with a focus on long-term maturation in hand-selected casks, resulting in whiskies that are full of character and depth.

The Hakushu Distillery is know as the 'Mountain Forest Distillery' as it stands amidst fresh streams and lush forests. Built with the notion, 'Coexisting with nature', a bird sanctuary was set up to help preserve the natural environment, thus preserving the pristine water that goes into creating the whisky. The 12 year old single malt whisky has a crisp and vibrant taste and can be enjoyed on neat, on the rocks or with ice and soda water.

The world’s first rested, super-premium young potato vodka. Naturally gluten-free, Family Reserve features a special variety of young potato that was planted during the 2016 growing season in the rich, dark soil of the estate fields surrounding the distillery. The potatoes were harvested when they were still young, producing a sweeter tasting profile with delicate earthy notes. The spirit was then left undisturbed in fifty-year-old Polish oak barrels for two years to allow time for it to rest and mellow before being bottled, by hand. Tasting Notes: Nose: Hints of spice accenting a gentle sweet musk.

Uniquely finished for up to four months in barrels that once contained rum from the Caribbean to create a luxuriously rich and indulgent single malt. After maturing the whisky for 21 years, the Malt Master adds even warmer and richer flavours by uniquely finishing this single malt in first fill bourbon barrels that once contained rum from the Caribbean. The rum soaked cask infuses the aged whisky with a spicy warmth and indulgent vanilla and toffee sweetness, the character of the Caribbean shining through. This gives the whisky a sumptuous sweet intensity that is both rich and creamy yet still retains the unmistakable character of Glenfiddich.
