# Artisanal Elevated Diverse Whiskies Suntory Yamazaki Launches a Limited Tsukuriwake Set By Amy Duong | Published 2022-05-19 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tsukuriwake References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2022/5/suntory-2022-yamazaki-limited-edition-tsukuriwake-selection-info) & [whisky.suntory](https://whisky.suntory.com//en/na/products/yamazaki-tsukuriwake#puncheon)  Suntory's Yamazaki whiskey gets a new limited edition Tsukuriwake release for 2022. The word Tsukuriwake means “artisanship through a diversity of making” and it was launched in celebration of Shinjiro Torii's founding contributions back in 1923. Today, it carries many of its roots with a strong sense of the peated and non-peated grain options, the washbacks, casks for maturation, and the pot stills. This new selection explores the founding pillars of the original Yamazaki Single Malt Whiskey in forms such as the Puncheon, Peated Malt, Spanish Oak, and Mizunara. It boasts the same packaging that is true to the brand language. Each whiskey has a full breakdown of the taste and the varying tasting notes online at Suntory.
