A century of Japanese whisky mastery

Yamazaki Supreme Champions

See why the brand was honoured at the International Spirits Challenge for three consecutive years.

Honouring the Supreme Champions of Yamazaki

For one hundred years, Yamazaki has shaped the identity of Japanese whisky. 

Nestled where three rivers meet on the outskirts of Kyoto, the distillery has long been recognised on a global scale. Particularly when it comes to awards.

The Yamazaki 12 Year Old, 18 Year Old and 25 Year Old have each been awarded the title of Supreme Champion Spirit at the International Spirits Challenge across three consecutive years. It is a clean sweep that confirms what collectors and drinkers already knew. 

Yamazaki sits at the pinnacle.
