Exclusive Japanese Whisky: The Yamazaki 12 Years – 100th Anniversary

A tribute to Japanese whisky craftsmanship

The Yamazaki 12 Years – 100 Years Anniversary Edition is more than just a whisky – it’s a celebration of a century of Japanese distilling craftsmanship. This exclusive anniversary edition retains everything that has made Yamazaki 12 Years world-famous, while adding an extra dimension of history, depth and finesse.

Yamazaki distillery, Japan's first and oldest, was founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii. It was here that Japanese whisky began – and ever since, Yamazaki has set the standard for how elegance and complexity go hand in hand.

Taste experience

This anniversary edition offers a scent profile that immediately arouses curiosity. The combination of honey, peach, tropical fruits and vanilla provides a fresh and inviting opening. Oak and light spices add depth and character.

On the palate, the whisky is rich and layered with notes of nuts, caramel and a subtle sweetness, particularly influenced by Sherry and Mizunara casks. The result is a harmonious and refined taste that balances the fruity, the spicy and the sweet.

The finish is long, silky and warm, with a hint of light smoke and sweet oak, with a touch of spice that elegantly rounds off the taste experience.

Bottle design with soul

The bottle epitomizes Japanese aesthetics. The exclusive anniversary edition is presented in a special design that not only celebrates 100 years of whisky, but also Yamazaki's timeless dedication to detail, making the bottle a collector's item in its own right.
