The Hakushu Single Malt Aged 12 Years Review
Distilled at Suntory’s Hakushu facility, some 100 miles west of Tokyo, this is the youngest expression in the Hakushu line. Prized for its delicate smokiness, this single malt delivers clean orchard and stone fruit aromas, and savory sips of green tea on the palate, which weave seamlessly among the subtle peat.
