About Yamazakura
Yamazakura whisky is crafted by the Sasanokawa Shuzo Co., Ltd., a prominent Japanese spirits producer with a rich heritage dating back to 1765. Originally established as a sake brewery in Fukushima Prefecture, Sasanokawa Shuzo expanded its operations to include whisky production in the 1940s. The company's commitment to quality and meticulous blending techniques has positioned Yamazakura as a respected name in Japanese whisky.
Asaka distillery is located in the Koriyama plain in Japan. "Yama" means "mountains" and "zakura" stands for "sakura" meaning "cherry trees", as a tribute to the Tohoku area (where the distillery stands), mainly known for its blooming trees.
As Sasanokawa Shuzo continues to refine its whisky production techniques and expand its portfolio, Yamazakura whisky remains a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese whisky craftsmanship. With a blend of tradition and innovation, Yamazakura is poised to captivate whisky enthusiasts with its distinctive offerings and commitment to quality.
