Hanyu 1991/2008 17 Year Old #9412 - Two of Diamonds

A rare expression from the legendary Hanyu Distillery, this 17-year-old single malt was distilled in 1991 and bottled in 2008, offering a glimpse into the distinctive whisky produced at the now-closed Japanese distillery.

Matured for 17 years in cask #9412, a combination of hogshead and bourbon barrel, the whisky was bottled at a powerful 58.1% ABV, preserving its character and intensity.

Released as part of the Two of Diamonds series, only 259 bottles were produced. With Hanyu having ceased production in 2000, original bottlings from the distillery have become increasingly rare and sought after, making this an appealing piece of Japanese whisky history for collectors.

About the Distillery

Hanyu Distillery was established in Saitama, Japan, and produced whisky until its closure in 2000. Despite its relatively short history, Hanyu became one of the most revered names among Japanese whisky collectors.

After the distillery closed, its remaining casks were preserved and later formed the basis for some of the most celebrated Japanese whisky releases. Today, original Hanyu bottlings are highly collectible and represent an important chapter in the history of Japanese single malt whisky.
