The single cask bottlings from Nikka were leaked occasionally to the European market but are not often available outside of the distillery or to a handful of specialists around the world but are becoming increasingly harder to find.

Founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii, whose shortened name became the flagship moniker for the Suntory brand, Yamazaki distillery was built in its location in the Kyoto prefecture because of its infamously pure water dating back to Samurai times. Enthusiasts and novices alike attest to the distinctive softness and approachability of whisky produced in this area and it is this character has become a trademark of the Suntory name. All of their whiskies are as sought after because of their taste as much as they are due to their scarcity. Suntory special releases are only released at maximum a few thousand bottles at a time and only to specific markets making them some of the most elusive bottles on the market. The unique Owner s Cask bottles, initially difficult to find, are now essentially impossible to find since the Suntory distilleries have discontinued the program indefinitely. Hakushu Distillery was established 50 years after the construction of Yamazaki. The whiskies of Hakushu tend to possess an intrinsic balance of peat and elegance that has become a trademark for ese Whisky.

Taketsuru, originally working for Suntory, left Suntory and Yamazaki in its early days for Yoichi on the northern ese island of Hokkaido because he believed it contained a similar climate to Scotland, and he wanted to make a Scottish style whisky. The whisky has become iconic in that its character is powerful but the whisky never loses its sense of balance. Yoichi boasts many unique opportunities such as having their own peat for malting due to the location of the distillery and, in fact, Yoichi is the only distillery that still uses direct fire by charcoal to fire its stills rather than the steam that everyone else in the world is using. The result is a certain rusticity that can now only be found at Yoichi.
