Frequently asked
What makes this special?
Dual collector significance: 100th anniversary commemorative packaging (Suntory 1923-2023) combined with Mizunara-forward maturation. Both centennial and Mizunara Yamazaki collectors compete for this release.
Is this investment-grade?
Yes — dual collector-appeal releases historically perform strongly. Retain original packaging, certificate, and all provenance documentation for maximum secondary-market value.
Should I open or keep sealed?
At this level, most collectors keep sealed as investment. If opened, reserve for a genuinely exceptional occasion — this is not casual sipping.

PALATE
Velvety and rich — caramelised honey, mizunara spice, sandalwood incense, vanilla cream, dark toffee, gentle leather, dried apricot, and integrated mizunara oak — silky, layered, and harmoniously balanced at higher strength.
FINISH
Exceptionally long — lingering honey, mizunara incense, sandalwood, vanilla, soft baking spice, and a warming oak depth fading gracefully — distinctively Japanese and beautifully composed.
