My favourite Japanese whisky

21 May 2018
A hint of an airy bamboo grove on the nose, a hint of peat at the end - a very gentle and refreshing dram. I actually prefer the Hakushu single malt vs. other Suntory’s 12 year old single malts.
A shame that it will be discontinued due t

Amazing Single Malt

This was my first Japanese Single Malt added to my collection, which mainly consists of Single Malt Scotch and it certainly holds it own.
A subtle hint of smoke at first but it has an great lingering sweet after taste and very smooth.

Smooth with a hint of smoke

Sweet, with a hint of smoke. Smooth, goes down effortlessly. Managed to pick up three bottles when it was still very affordable.
However, for long term enjoyment (or short term if consumed quickly), still very much worth the price!

This is my favourite whisky of all time, and I am sad and unsurprised in equal measure to see the price climb and supply diminish. It's phenomenal in balance and depth: crisp yet smoky, sweet yet clean, both light and smokey.
You deserve

I'm new to Whisky and have only tried around 20 different kinds.
However, since first tasting The Hakushu it instantly became my favourite.
To my taste it is very unique. Sweet. Strong. Refreshing.
I often pour a nip and simply place it

I've tried a couple of the Japanese/Suntory whiskies that Dan has on offer, but this one has to be my favourite so far. The taste of this one is sensational, mellow enough to enjoy neat, but quite interesting. I get a hint of peat up-front

I have a pretty impressive whisky collection at home, a dozen or more Japanese whisky plus a dozen or more Scotland whisky and have to say Hakushu 12 year old is favourite out of them all. VERY smooth one of the smoothest I had and the hint

Very different

There is no whisky quite like it.
It has a green apple hint from the japanese cypress used in the barrel.
It is incredibly smooth and very different from any others I have ever tasted, and I have tasted a lot.
A fantastic drop. The only thi

Great whiskey but you can buy it in Japan for about $40 Australian

Dont buy.
18 November 2023
I'm saying this because this is a sensational single malt and I don't want stocks to run out. So please avoid this delicious drop and buy something else. Jokes aside, This is a heavenly whisky, complex, but straight forward, hints of smoke
