The Yamazaki Limited Edition 2022

It was only once the realities of the perilous whisky shortage took hold that these wonderful expressions were laid by the wayside, making way for a number of less-premium, NAS whiskies such as the Essence of Suntory Volumes 3 and 4 and the recent Yamazaki Cask Finish releases.

Then, last year, Suntory revitalized the series with the release of the Yamazaki Limited Edition 2021, bringing back the good times, at long last. 

Now, they’re set to keep the ball rolling with the release of the Yamazaki Limited Edition 2022. 

This one will focus heavily on the use of top-quality Mizunara wood for maturing, resulting in a creamy, aromatic expression that delivers a lively, fruity tasting experience backed up by a unique and elegant array of spices. It’s smooth, flavour-packed, and incredibly moreish – what more could you want?

Tasting Notes

Nose: Green apple, mature pear, acacia honey with a hint of vanilla.

Palate: Clean, velvety, and mild, with delicate butterscotch notes.
