The Yamazaki 12years 100th Anniversary Bottle

Celebrating the 100th Anniversary goes beyond the whisky.

This limited edition packaging pays tribute to House of Suntory’s unique design approach that brings “Monozukuri” craftsmanship to life and grounds it as part of Japanese culture. This same relentless pursuit for quality, ingenuity, and expressiveness has inspired the design of this centennial limited-edition bottle. The bottle design for Yamazaki 12 Year Old pays tribute to Yamazaki, the birthplace of Japanese Whisky. The illustration captures this legendary distillery in deep copper tones from a low angle, looking up. This perspective is a reminder to always stay grounded and pay homage to our founder Shinjiro Torii’s dream of making whisky blessed with the riches of Japanese nature and craftmanship. The subtle play on light and shadow symbolizes the sun, representing the future shining on our Soul Place.
