Yamazaki 18 year old Single Malt is both intense and delicate, and its astonishing fruity aroma is the result of the meticulous work of Suntory's master blenders over the past several decades. Awarded many times in international competitions, this true nectar will fully satisfy the great amateurs as well as the novices eager to taste a whisky of exceptional quality.

This exceptional single malt whisky is made up mainly of whiskies aged in old Sherry casks (sherry wine), from which it inherits all the aromatic characteristics of sweetness and delicacy. The nose will express notes of grape, apricot, café au lait and oak wood. When tasted, Yamazaki 18 year old will deliver a miriad of aromas including strawberry, blackberry and dark chocolate, and will disappear leaving behind some sweet and spicy scents.

Located in a humid and preserved area at the confluence of three rivers, Katsura, Uji and Kizu, the Yamazaki distillery provides the ideal conditions for whisky aging. Founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii, it is known for its single malts with fruity, woody and spicy character.
