Founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii, the Yamazaki Distillery is Japan’s oldest whisky distillery and the birthplace of Japanese single malt. Known for pioneering whisky production in Japan and its meticulous use of various oak casks, Yamazaki single malts helped define Japanese whisky on the world stage. The Owner’s Cask series was a private cask programme offered by Suntory (the parent company) between 2004 and 2010, allowing individuals and businesses to bottle entire casks into rare single malt releases. Yamazaki 1984 Owner’s Cask #WG0110 is one such ultra‑rare single cask expression distilled in 1984 and bottled at cask strength years later, representing a collector’s pinnacle from the distillery’s earlier era of whisky making.
Taste Profile
BrightBalancedBold
Rich and deep on the nose with layered dried fruit, dark chocolate and bold sherry influences. The palate delivers concentrated sherry‑cask character with sweet raisins, spice, dark caramel and cedar, finishing long with warming oak and dried fruit complexity — a rare expression of Yamazaki’s early style.
