Suntory Hakushu 12 Year Old

About this spirit

Suntory Hakushu 12 Year Old comes from the “Forest Distillery,” tucked deep in the Japanese Alps and surrounded by dense woodland and exceptionally pure mountain water. First released in the 1990s, it quickly became one of Japan’s most admired single malts, known for its fresh, green, lightly smoky profile. As global demand for Japanese whisky surged, Hakushu 12 became increasingly scarce, adding to its reputation as a modern classic. Its aroma shows fresh green apple, soft smoke, pine, mint and a touch of citrus. On the palate, it offers a clean, elegant texture with notes of pear, light peat, herbal freshness and a gentle sweetness that keeps everything in balance. The finish is crisp, subtly smoky and refreshing, capturing the signature style that made Hakushu 12 such a beloved expression among Japanese whisky fans. Awards IWSC 2009 Gold - Best in Class
