Hakushu, born in Suntory’s mountain forest distillery, brings nature into every sip. It draws water from pristine reserves at the base of Mount Kaikomagatake and matures in a forested microclimate. With its lightly peated style, it delivers a whisky smooth in its complex nuances and refreshingly crisp – a celebrated Japanese single malt whisky with countless awards and raving reviews over the years.
This 18-year-old elevates the Hakushu experience beyond the 12-Year-Old, unveiling a crisp, gently smoky profile with herbal notes – a true revelation among Japanese single malts.
