This highly limited edition from Hakushu underwent exclusive maturation in sherry casks, with only 3,000 bottles produced. The nose presents a rich profile, including aromas of dried fruits, toasted bread, tobacco, aged sherry wood, spices, subtle resinous notes, espresso, and dark chocolate. The palate is characterized by an oily and creamy texture, featuring notes of liquorice, spice, dried fruits, prunes, plums, mocha, molasses, and acacia honey.
Located the foothills of Mount Kaikomagatake in the southern Japanese Alps of Yamanashi Province, Hakushu distillery was founded in 1973 by Keizo Saji, the son of the founder of Suntory. The distillery’s stunning location in at an elevation of 700m above sea level in the heart of a protected forest, along with source of soft, mineral-rich alpine water, produces single malts of impressive elegance and nuance.
In the 1980s Hakushu was the largest distillery in the world, producing in the region of 30 million litres of whisky per year. Nowadays it produces a broad range of whisky styles from its 16 stills, from light to heavily peated malts, however the house style is herbal, lightly smoky and evocative of Hakushu’s mountain forest surroundings.
