Portrait: What defines the Yamazaki Legent

Discover the unique fusion of the Legent Yamazaki Cask Finish Blend whiskey, inspired by the fascinating art of whiskey making. Originally an exquisite Kentucky Straight Bourbon distilled from American grain by Master Distiller Fred Noe, this special whiskey embarks on a transcontinental journey to Japan. There, in the legendary Suntory Yamazaki distillery on the outskirts of Kyoto, it receives an incomparable refinement under the direction of Shinji.

The whiskey matures in carefully selected wine barrels made of French oak and former sherry barrels made of Spanish oak to produce a rich variety of aromas and a lively to develop a spicy finish. Additionally, a special reserve is stored in sherry casks previously used for Yamazaki Single Malt Japanese Whiskey to give it a full-bodied, malty depth and achieve multi-faceted complexity.

The three unique batches are finally blended with a portion of the original Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey and return to Clermont for final refinement and bottling. The result is a harmonious and fascinatingly complex masterpiece that combines warm oak notes, a gentle brightness and an exceptionally long finish in perfect balance.

Discover the incomparable magic of the Legent Yamazaki Cask Finish Blend and immerse yourself in an unforgettable culinary experience.
