Japanese entrepreneur Shinjiro Torii founded his first wine shop in Osaka in 1899 and by 1921 had set up the Kotobukiya drinks company, building Japan’s first single malt whisky distillery Yamazaki with Masataka Taketsuru, who would go on to found rivals Nikka, in 1923.
After Torii’s death in 1962, Kotobukiya changed its name to Suntory in tribute to its founder and has continued to expand ever since, building the Chita and Hakushu distilleries in 1972-1973 and taking full control of Morrison Bowmore Distillers in 1994. Suntory bought Jim Beam in 2014, making it the world’s third largest drinks company with a portfolio including Bowmore, Auchentoshan, Glen Garioch, Ardmore, Laphroaig and Cooley distilleries and the Teacher’s and Hibiki blended whiskies.
