Our take on the Suntory Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve Single Malt Japanese Whisky 6-Pack 750ml
Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve is Suntory's entry single malt from Japan's oldest malt distillery, built from whisky aged in Mizunara oak, ex-red wine and American oak casks. It is softer and fruitier than the core Yamazaki 12, with berries, peach, vanilla and coconut over toasted oak, and a clean, lightly spiced finish at 43% ABV. Reviewers treat it as an easy-drinking introduction to Japanese single malt rather than a collector's bottle. This is a six-bottle pack, so it suits hosting, gifting and tastings more than a single dram.
- Smooth, fruit-forward and easy to drink neat
- Mizunara, red wine and American oak casks give layered flavor
- Works well in highballs and over ice
- Six bottles suit parties, gifting and tastings
- 43% ABV keeps it approachable without dilution
