The Yamazaki Mizunara Cask Edition Japanese Whisky is Expertly Crafted

— September 17, 2017 — Lifestyle
The Yamazaki Mizunara Cask Edition Japanese Whisky is the latest release from the brand that is expertly crafted to ensure that it's one of the smoothest libations to be blended yet. Made by utilizing Mizunara oak casks to age the liquor, the whisky has been aged for 18 years and is the product of years of research by the Suntory team.

The Yamazaki Mizunara Cask Edition Japanese Whisky features a mulberry Echizen paper label that has been handcrafted to ensure a rustic touch when it comes to branding. The box that the libation comes packaged in is crafted from the very casks that have been used to house the very whiskey that they now keep protected within. The whisky is set to retail for a cost of $1,000 per bottle.
