Hanyu distillery was founded in 1941 in Hanyu city 60 km from Tokyo. It was licensed to make whisky in 1946, 54 years later the distillery was closed. Unfortunately the distillery was dismantled right after the company was sold in 2004.
In the Spring of 2005, during a private tasting in the Highlander Inn in Craigellachie Scotland, whisky lover Jeroen Koetsier came across an extraordinary cask sample of Hanyu. Soon after, a private cask of Hanyu 1988 was bought and bottled. Due to the excellent feedback from across the globe on both label and liquor, Full Proof Europe was founded.
Now you can get your hands on one of the bottles in a Limited edition of 408 numbered bottles. Bottled at Full Proof from cask 9204.
