Yamazaki Sherry Cask 2009 1st Edition
Lot number: 121-02881
Winning bid: £3,000
Founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii, Yamazaki is Japan's first bona fide whisky distillery. Sitting in between Osaka and Kyoto - served by the converging rivers of Katsura, Uji, and Kizu - the stills are varied in shape, size, lyne arm position and some are direct-fired while others are steam-heated. All of which allows for a creation of many different styles of spirit destined for blending as well as bottling as single malt.
This single malt is the first release from Yamazaki's annual Cask Collection. Aged solely in Sherry casks, this bottle does not have an age statement but Suntory say it contains whisky ranging from 13 to 15 years old. Hugely popular among the ''sherryheads''
Bottled: 2009
Cask Type: Sherry Butt
48% ABV / 70cl
