Yamazaki 25 Mizunara: Suntory's Oldest Whisky Aged in Rare Japanese Oak | stupidDOPE | Est. 2008

Mizunara oak is revered within the world of whisky but is notoriously difficult to work with. Known for its tight grain, porous nature, and demanding conditions, it makes up less than 1% of the casks used by Suntory. Its scarcity alone sets it apart, but its contribution to flavor is what makes it legendary. Over a quarter century of aging, Mizunara casks impart complex and layered notes that are impossible to replicate with other oak varieties.
