Suntory are one of the founding fathers of Japanese whisky, established by Shinjirō Torii in 1899 as a wine store in Osaka. The venture was hugely successful, and the company was renamed Kotobukiya in 1921, which built its first distillery three years later, Yamazaki. The distillery produced both malt and grain whiskies which the company blended together, releasing its first Suntory White Label in 1929, the resulting popularity of which saw the firm renamed after it 1963. Expansion in the next decade saw the company move its grain production to a new Chita distillery in 1972, and open a second malt distillery, Hakushu, the following year. Suntory today has a large stake in both the bourbon and Scotch whisky industry, but remains at the forefront of its native whisky market too.

Every year, Suntory releases a new limited edition of their Yamazaki, and in 2016, they gave us another masterpiece. No information on the number of bottles available was unveiled by Suntory for the 2016 version, however, it is bottled at 43% ABV and comprises a combination of young single malts, matured in American oak casks, Bourbon barrels, European oak barrels, Sherry, and Port Wine casks, with some of it having been aged over 20 years.

An annual limited edition from Suntory's Yamazaki distillery, this non-age statement expression is crafted with various different cask types and vintages to create a highly sought-after release. The makeup consists of whisky that has been aged for 20 years in ex European oak that previously housed red wine, whisky that has been aged for 20 years in Port barrels and the body stemming from a younger ex bourbon cask whisky. These three elements are married perfectly to create as malt with unparallel complexity, and after Yamazaki took out the best whisky in the world you know this won’t stick around.
