Suntory Hakushu 18 Year Old Single Malt 700ml 43%

Tasting notes

From David Broom (whiskymag.com)
NOSE: Decent intensity with vegetal (wet banana leaf)/green plum notes. Tropical notes mixed with dry hay and flowers. Hint of toffee and crisp oak. Slightly acidic, yet sweet.
PALATE: Direct with decent grip. Finer in character than the 12 with similar levels of sweetness but this has more toastiness and better length. Silky.
FINISH: This is best neat. Shows a clean progression of flavours.
