Suntory - The Hakushu Single Malt Distillers Reserve
The flagship Hakushu single malt is a masterclass in balance. It is made by combining different styles of whisky – all produced in the same place – including bright, young whiskies with much older stock and a small proportion of heavily peated whisky. The result is a fragrant dram with notes of cucumber, white fruit, soft herbs and the barest hint of smoke. Excellent served neat or long with ice in a classic Whisky Highball.
Nose: The herbs are very up front with this one. Peppermint, pine and pleasant grassy notes. Cucumber and melon round out the nose.
Palate: 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.
Finish: A waft of smoke appears during the long finish.
