2024 YAMAZAKI LIMITED EDITION, TSUKURIWAKE SELECTION

Tsukuriwake (pronounced soo-koo-ree-wah-keh) means ‘artisanship through a diversity of making,’ and the limited-edition 2024 Tsukuriwake Series is a true reflection of this. Suntory's 5th Generation Chief Blender Shinji Fukuyo has pushed the boundaries of whisky making with this series by using ingredients like wood, and processes that expand the previous Tsukuriwake range to showcase the diversity of whisky making.

Following last year’s milestone 100th Anniversary of pioneering Japanese whisky, The House of Suntory continues to innovate the category with the 2024 Tsukuriwake Series. The previous selection was released in 2022. 

Tasting Notes:

Yamazaki Golden Promise

The Yamazaki Golden Promise is composed from Golden Promise barley. First grown in Scotland in the 1960s, this varietal is revered for its flavor and malting characteristics. Combined with aging in American Oak casks, the nuances of the Yamazaki base are accentuated through a malty and rich character, with sweet, fruity and citrus notes.

• Color: Barley gold
• Nose: Reminiscent of a fragrance with sweet malt, vanilla and honey
• Palate: Rich and full with hints of orange marmalade and custard
• Finish: Sweet and fruity with citrus, long and lasting

Yamazaki Islay Peated Malt

Islay peat imparts one of scotch whisky’s most distinctive flavors, venerated globally for its distinctive smokiness. The Yamazaki Islay Peated Malt balances the smoky quality with a characteristic sweetness, borne from the unique water and maturation processes that define Yamazaki whisky. This marriage of traditions is especially present on the nose, where gentle smoke meets a hint of biscuit.

• Color: Bright gold
• Nose: Gently smoky with a hint of biscuit
• Palate: Smooth and sweet like brown sugar, followed by citrus of bitter orange
• Finish: Warm, slow and sweetly smoky

Yamazaki 18 Year Old Mizunara (Tsukuriwake 2024 Edition)

Through years of experimentation, our blenders have discovered the secret to the treasures of Mizunara casks: time. A long maturation period imparts unmistakeable spiciness and notes of sandalwood and aloe upon the Yamazaki. As a result, Yamazaki Mizunara Aged 18 Years is a pleasingly complex, rich and elegant whisky, where fruit, spice and wood notes engage to inspire the senses.

• Color: Reddish Amber
• Nose: Rich and elegant top notes of dark cherry, ripe peach with hints 
of cinnamon and nutmeg
• Palate: Subtly spiced organette with undernotes of Japanese incense
• Finish: Long and lingering, accentuated with clove, sandalwood and 
hints of dried coconut
