Inspired by traditional Scotch whisky, Torii took a Japanese approach, choosing a completely different terrain and climate from Scotland to create a unique type of whisky. The Yamazaki distillery is thus the cradle of Japanese whisky. Proudly nestling on the outskirts of Kyoto, this region was once known as 'Minaseno', the source of some of Japan's purest water.
