Bottling Notes

Built in 1973, the Hakushu distillery is known as the ‘Mountain Forest Distillery’ as it’s surrounded by fresh streams and lush forests not far from the Japanese Alps and it’s the pristine water from these streams that contribute to the fresh and delicate flavours of Hakushu whisky.

And now from Suntory comes this vibrant, relatively new single malt whisky from their Hakushu distillery which follows the recent movement towards non-age statement (NAS) whiskies. The Hakushu ‘Distiller’s Reserve’ Single Malt is produced from the pure waters of the Southern Japanese Alps combining young lightly peated and older, heavily peated malts rumoured to be a minimum eighteen years in age and matured in American oak casks.
