Have Any Questions?

Is this a single malt?
No — it’s a pure malt, which means it’s a blend of malt whiskies from more than one distillery (Yoichi and Miyagikyo), but made entirely from malted barley.

Is this discontinued?
Yes — the 17 Year is no longer in regular production, making it increasingly rare and collectible.

How does this compare to the 21 Year?
The 17 Year offers a slightly fresher, more fruit-forward profile, while still delivering the depth and complexity expected from an aged Taketsuru release.

Is this worth collecting?
Absolutely. With its discontinued status and critical acclaim, the 17 Year remains a prized bottle for collectors and fans of Japanese whisky.
