In 1923, Shinjiro Torii envisioned a Whiskey 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 Whiskey that would suit the delicate palate of the Japanese and enhance their dining experience. Though initially inspired by traditional Scottish Whiskey, 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 Whiskey.

Product Notes
Continuing 40 years of excellence in distilling Japanese grain whiskies at Chita distillery, the House of Suntory Whiskey's Master Blenders have created an outstanding single grain Whiskey. In 1972 on the shores of Chita Peninsula, Keizo Saji—Suntory’s second Master Blender—built a distillery dedicated to creating the highest quality Japanese grain Whiskey. With versatile flavours and exquisite balance, Chita grain whiskies have traditionally been used as the "dashi" or broth that enhances the harmony of Suntory blends.
