Hakushu 25 Years 700ml

A smokey, burning nose with nutmeg, ginger, rancio, toffee apples, and Armagnac. With a rich, sherried palate with notes of wood smoke, linseed, custard-and-rhubarb candies, raspberries, and walnuts. There’s a growing mint flavour. And has a bittersweet oak finish that is lengthy, herbaceous, and nutty.

Hakushu is a floral and subtly smoky single malt from Suntory’s highland distillery, which is tucked away in the Mt. Kaikomagatake forests. It is no surprise that Hakushu is a “green and fresh” whisky, hailed by the most inquisitive whisky experts and food lovers, coming straight from the pristine woods, mountains, and clear waterways of the Southern Japanese Alps. Your senses are awakened and liberated by its distinct single malt-style crispness and brightness.
