Yamazaki Tsukuriwake Selection Islay Peated Edition
YAMAZAKI Tsukuriwake Selection Islay Peated Edition is a single malt Japanese whisky from Yamazaki, created to show how Islay peat can be interpreted through the House of Suntory’s Tsukuriwake approach. Bottled at 48% ABV in 700ml format, it balances distinctive smokiness with Yamazaki’s sweetness and maturation character, making it a focused expression for drinkers exploring Japanese whisky beyond the core range.
House of Suntory presents this expression within the 2024 Tsukuriwake Selection, a series exploring different whisky-making techniques across raw ingredients, peating levels, fermentation, distillation and maturation. This Yamazaki edition uses Islay peat influence to bring smokiness while retaining sweetness shaped by Yamazaki’s water and maturation processes. The official page verifies 48% ABV and 700ml bottle size through the Malaysia Whisky.my listing.
In the glass it shows a bright gold colour. The aroma brings gentle smoke with a biscuit-like nuance, before a smooth palate that balances brown-sugar sweetness with bitter-orange citrus. The finish stays warm and slow, leaving a sweetly smoky impression that reflects the Islay-peated malt influence without losing Yamazaki’s characteristic sweetness.
Choose this bottle for collectors of Japanese single malt whisky, Yamazaki enthusiasts, or drinkers who enjoy peat with a softer, sweeter frame. Serve it neat in a tasting glass, or add a few drops of water if preferred, especially when comparing peated styles across Japan and Scotland.
