Jack of Diamonds: The Most Recognized Value Pick Among the Face Card Set
The Diamond suit has four face cards. The price of the Jack of Diamonds typically falls between that of the King, Queen, and regular number cards, making its positioning clear and its transactions stable. For collectors aiming to complete a full set of face cards, this one is almost a must-have, thus its circulation in auctions is always active, and it's not difficult to find a buyer if you own one.
Origin of the Hanyu Card Series
Hanyu Distillery, located in Saitama Prefecture, was one of Japan's representative old distilleries for single malt, ceasing production and closing in 2000. At the time of its closure, Ichiro Akuto took over and preserved the remaining unblended whisky casks, which were later re-released under the name Ichiro's Malt.
The Card Series is the culmination of these original whiskies: each cask was independently bottled, adorned with a playing card suit and rank. They were released in batches starting from 2005 and were completed in 2014. Each card represents one cask, with no replenishment once bottled. This "one cask, one card, no re-release" setup is the fundamental reason why individual cards like the Jack of Diamonds hold significant collectible value.
