Hakushu 18 Year

Peated Malt 100th Anniversary

  • Japanese Single Malt Whisky

70cl / 48%

Description

This centennial release of Hakushu 18 Year Old brings a new angle to peated whisky. Matured in a variety of casks, it is a fresh and gentle single malt with a softly smoky core that brings aromas of green apples, jasmine blossom and sweet peat smoke on the nose.

The palate is filled with notes of oven-fresh cookies and vanilla, with waves of lingering sweet smoke on the finish.

100th Anniversary Limited Edition. The Hakushu 18 Peated Malt is made up of carefully selected malt whiskies all aged for a minimum of 18 years in various casks, created in honor of Suntory Whisky’s centenary.

The Hakushu Distillery blenders work with peat, while softening the palate using the exceptional mountain water of the area, filtered through ancient granite rocks.

Refined and elegant, this centennial Hakushu Peated Malt brings smoke that is less strong, never dominant and in typical Japanese style, more complex and gentle. The result is a spicy, peppery welcome, a slow wave of  smoke that deepens as it reveals its herbaceous notes and green fruity undertones.
