Description
A bottle of The Hakushu 12 Year Old Single Malt Japanese Whisky. This was bottled in 2023 to celebrate 100th anniversary of the House of Suntory and features a new label design.
The original Hakushu distillery was built in 1973 by Suntory and in the 1980s was the largest whisky distillery in the world.
The Hakushu 12 Single Malt is made up of carefully selected malt whiskies all aged for a minimum of 12 years in various casks, created in honor of Suntory Whisky's centenary.
Nestled deep in Mt. Kaikomagatake, The Hakushu Distillery draws on its unique natural surroundings. The illustration on the bottle captures the Hakushu distillery in soft hues of verdant green, representing the forest surrounding the distillery.
Blenders work with peat, while softening the palate using the exceptional mountain water of the area, filtered through ancient granite rocks.
This creates a fresh and gentle smoky single malt whisky, a true revelation in Japanese single malts that must be experienced.
