The makers
behind the bottle

The distillery

Yamazaki

Shimamoto, Japan

Yamazaki Distillery was founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii in the Osaka Prefecture, making it Japan’s first commercial whisky distillery. Located where three rivers meet, the area’s unique climate and pure water sources create ideal conditions for whisky maturation. Yamazaki became known for combining Scottish techniques with Japanese precision, producing elegant and complex whiskies. Over time, it has gained global recognition, especially after winning major international awards. Today, Yamazaki stands as a cornerstone of Japanese whisky, prized by collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.

Excise duties

Added for delivery inside the EU

Excise duty is a tax on alcohol, separate from VAT, and it rises with the alcohol in the bottle. Each EU country sets its own rates, so if you live in the EU and win this lot, the duty of the destination country is added to your invoice. This is not optional.

Buying from outside the EU? Then no excise duty is added: the customs of your country take care of it.
