Description
Suntory Old Whisky is a series of especially mature whisky from Suntory, first released in 1950. The company occasionally releases new bottles of this brand. However, this is a wonderful and very rare old bottle of Suntory’s blended Japanese malt whisky, specially released in commemoration of Expo 1970.
Released by Suntory in commemoration of the World's Fair held in Osaka, Japan, between March 15 and September 13, 1970. This World fair theme was "Progress and Harmony for Mankind".
Suntory is the first distillery in Japan, founded by Shinjiro Torii in 1899.
Read More About the Suntory distillery
In 1923, Shinjiro Torii envisioned a whisky filled with the essence of Japanese nature and hand-crafted by artisans through a patient process of enhancing the work of nature.
He dreamt of creating subtle, refined, yet complex whisky that would suit the delicate palate of the Japanese and enhance their dining experience.
Though initially inspired by traditional Scottish whisky, Torii envisioned a Japanese approach by choosing a terrain and climate completely different from those of Scotland. Torii chose the region of Yamazaki, on the outskirts of Kyoto as the birthplace of Japanese whisky.
