Yamazaki Limited Edition 2022 at a Glance
Yamazaki Limited Edition 2022 is a Japan-limited single malt from Suntory's Yamazaki Distillery. It places Mizunara Japanese oak at the centre of the release and is bottled at 43% ABV in a 700ml format.
The “2022” designation identifies this limited edition, not a vintage or a 2022 distillation date. Buyers comparing editions should check the dated bottle and packaging photographs. If the presentation box or condition matters to your purchase, ask us to confirm the current item before ordering.
Mizunara Oak and the 2022 Edition
Yamazaki is made exclusively from malt whisky distilled at Yamazaki Distillery, Japan's first malt whisky distillery. For this 2022 release, specialist product references identify Mizunara oak maturation as the defining feature. Mizunara can contribute coconut, incense-like wood and Japanese spice characteristics.
This edition is sold without an age statement on the front label. Do not confuse the year in its name with a stated whisky age. Explore more bottles from the Yamazaki collection or browse our Japanese whisky range.
