Suntory The Hakushu 12 Years Old Single Malt is an exceptional Japanese whisky produced at the renowned Hakushu Distillery. Nestled amidst the lush forests of the southern Japanese Alps, this distillery utilises the region’s exceptionally pure spring water, which lends the whisky its distinctive freshness and clarity. Since its foundation in 1973, the Hakushu distillery has been renowned for its elegant, subtly peaty whisky style, which sets it apart from other typical Japanese whiskies.

This 12-year-old single malt is characterised by a harmonious balance of gentle peaty notes, fresh herbal aromas and a light sweetness. Maturation in American oak casks lends it a pleasant depth and a smooth texture. Thanks to its unique combination of freshness and subtle smokiness, the Hakushu 12 is a real highlight for whisky connoisseurs seeking Japanese sophistication with a touch of Scottish character.

The elegant gift box (GB) also makes it an ideal present for whisky connoisseurs looking for a special bottle.

The Hakushu 12 Years Old is a whisky best enjoyed neat or with a small splash of water to allow its delicate flavours to unfold to their full potential. It is also excellent in a Japanese ‘highball’ – served with soda and ice, which really brings out its fresh and light notes. Culinary pairings include light fish dishes, sushi or fine cheeses. It also offers an exquisite taste experience when enjoyed with dark chocolate or roasted nuts.
