From the Hakushu distillery in the foothills of Mount Kaikomagatake comes their Distiller's Reserve single malt whisky, a no-age-statement expression, that captures the smoky, herbaceous characteristics of their whiskies. Both lightly-peated and heavily-peated malts were used for this complex and deeply enjoyable whisky from Suntory.
The herbs are very up front with this one. Peppermint, pine and pleasant grassy notes. Cucumber and melon round out the nose.
All the notes on the nose swim effortlessly through the palate, the mint developing sweeter notes as it goes on. Citrus zest also pops in to say hello.
A waft of smoke appears during the long finish.
This shall make a fantastic Highball. Oh yes it shall.
This is such a beautiful, delicate and satisfying whisky. I've offered this to many people who think they don't like whisky and they've really enjoyed it. One of my all time favourites due to it's subtly & distinctiveness. I've got a cupboard full of bottles but my wife can identify this without any help.
This whisky is up there at the top of my list for value for money and excellent taste so smooth from start to finish
Harsher start smooth finish
A refreshing alternative single malt, a must have for those warm summer evening's. The crisp fruity notes refresh
Un des meilleurs scotch que j'ai bu! Seul problème non disponible au Canada.
