Shinjiro Torii, Suntory's founder and first Master Blender, invented Kakubin in 1937. It was affectionately known as Kakubin, or "square bottle," despite the fact that it was originally labelled "Suntory Whisky." Suntory's devotion to unchanging quality has been symbolised by its name and square-cut tortoise-shell design for more than 80 years. Kakubin is a highly adaptable whisky with a sweet scent, rich flavour, and dry finish, and the Kakubin highball is the drink of choice for many Japanese when they go out for a night of food and drink.
