Tasting Notes

Colour

Pale straw gold with a bright, lucid glow and a whisper of sunlit warmth.

Nose

Aromas of spiced apricot, musky peach, and nectarine mingle with a whisper of white pepper and sooty smoke, offset by salted white chocolate.

Palate

Green apple and lemon-lime zest open the palate, carried by cool menthol with a subtle touch of white pepper. Sweet chili flakes lend gentle heat, while gooseberry adds tart lift, finished by a delicate, lingering smoke.

Finish

Smoked apricot and spiced apple linger, brightened by white pepper and a whisper of ginger barley sugar. Mint leaf cools the finish, leaving a peppery, clean glow with subtle smoke and a refreshing fruit lift.

Hakushu
(hah-koo-SHOO) Hakushu was founded in 1973 by Keizo Saji as Suntory’s second malt whisky distillery, built deep in the forests of the Southern Japanese Alps to mark 50 years since the founding of Japanese whisky. Created to produce a style distinct from Yamazaki, it was established in Yamanashi for its exceptionally soft mountain water and cool, misty climate, and has since become one of the defining names in Japanese single malt.
