This page refers to the 1993 distillery's general single cask strength, which belongs to a different SKU than themed versions such as the elephant label or peat cask. Cask strength whisky is not diluted with water, and its alcohol content typically ranges from 50 to 60% ABV. Being filled into casks in 1993 means the liquid has slumbered in the cask for decades. At that time, it was not considered a rarity, but today, due to the increasing brand status and dwindling supply, it has become a highly sought-after target in the collector's market. If you have this bottle in hand, we can help you assess its current market value and set a reasonable price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Positioning of Yamazaki 1993 Single Cask Strength in the Secondary Market\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYamazaki is Japan's first malt whisky distillery, founded in 1923, located in the Tennozan area of Osaka Prefecture. The distillery houses six pairs of copper pot stills of various shapes, ranging from straight necks to spherical, which is quite rare for a single distillery and allows for a diverse range of characters in the unblended whisky. After Yamazaki 12 Year Old first won a gold medal at the ISC in 2003, international demand steadily rose. In 2014, Yamazaki Single Malt Sherry Cask was named the World's Best Whisky by Jim Murray, further elevating its price and attention. Early bottled single casks were re-priced during this long-term upward trend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e1993 General Single Cask Specifications at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eType\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eJapanese Single Malt Whisky · Single Cask Strength (Single Cask Genshu)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eCask Filling Year\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e1993\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eCask Type\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eDepends on the batch (Sherry, Bourbon, Mizunara, and White Oak have all appeared)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlcohol Content\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCask strength, approximately 50 to 60% ABV\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eTypical Ageing\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eDepends on bottling year, mostly 15 to 30 years\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCheck These Items Before Selling\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe valuation of a single cask version is highly dependent on the information on the label.
