This is a limited edition single cask version released by the distillery, undiluted with water, and typically has an ABV of 50 to 60%. It was aged in a Hogshead cask, approximately 200 liters, which is one of the standard cask sizes for malt whisky. By 2001, Yamazaki single malt was entering its global expansion phase, and such single casks, once sold out, never reappear, which is the core reason for their high demand in the secondary market.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eYamazaki and Single Cask Unblended Whisky\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFounded by Shinjiro Torii in 1923, Yamazaki is Japan's first malt whisky distillery, located at the foot of Mount Tenno in the suburbs of Kyoto, known for its clear water and moderate humidity. It produces \u003cb\u003eJapanese single malt whisky\u003c\/b\u003e (not blended, not Scotch whisky). After Yamazaki 12 Year Old won gold at the ISC in 2003, the brand's international demand continued to rise. In 2014, Yamazaki Single Malt Sherry Cask was named the best whisky in the world by Jim Murray.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA \"single cask bottling\" means that all the liquid in the bottle comes from the same oak cask. The bottle typically indicates the cask number, distillation year, bottling year, and yield. Its scarcity lies in the fact that once the cask is empty, the exact same liquid cannot be replicated—this is why the cask number and label information are particularly important when selling single cask versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBasic Outline of 2001 Vintage Single Cask\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eCasking Year\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e2001\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eCask Type\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eHogshead (approx. 200 liters) on this page\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlcohol Content\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCask Strength (approx. 50–60% ABV)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eTypical Maturation Period\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e15 to 30 years, depending on bottling year\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMust Be Confirmed Before Sale\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCheck Item\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eObservation Method\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eLabel Cask Type\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\"Hogshead\" indicated on front or back label.\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eCask Number\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSingle cask number (XXXXXX) printed on back label.\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eBottling Year\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\"Bottled YYYY\" on back label.\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccessories\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eOriginal (paulownia wood box) and single cask certificate complete.\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eYamazaki 2001 Hogshead Single Cask Unblended Whisky Valuation and Transaction Process\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eYamazaki 2001 Hogshead Single Cask Unblended Whisky preliminary price inquiry\u003c\/b\u003e: Take clear photos of the front, back label, fill level, seal, and box certificate.

Which photos are most crucial?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Photos of the front, back label, fill level, seal, bottle bottom, and box certificate are most useful. The front and back label styles, neck seal, fill level, and box certificate are key. If it's Mizunara, Sherry, or a single cask, details of the bottle bottom and batch are also worth photographing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do Hogshead casks and other cask sizes differ in their effect on the whisky?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: A Hogshead is about 200 liters and is a standard cask size for malt whisky. Compared to a 500-liter Puncheon cask, the whisky has a higher ratio of contact with the wood, leading to faster maturation and a more pronounced influence of the wood flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: If it was barreled in 2001 and bottled recently, does that mean it's 20+ years old?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Theoretically, yes, but the actual age statement is based on the official label. Some batches directly state the age, while others state the original barreling year. When selling, rely on the information printed on the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: If the cask number on the back label is blurry and unreadable, will it affect the valuation?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, it will have an impact.
