Fuji Single Grain Japanese Whisky Review
Japan’s most famous mountain not only lends its name to this brand, snowmelt water from the volcano is also harnessed in every stage of this single grain whisky’s production. Technically a blend of three different styles of grain whisky — inspired by American, Canadian, and Scottish distillates — it opens with light and fresh fruit and floral notes. The palate shares a similar summery profile; bright and energetic with a surprising and pleasant depth of flavor.
