100th Anniversary Limited Edition Design. The Hakushu 12 Single Malt is made up of carefully selected malt whiskies all aged for a minimum of 12 years in various casks, created in honor of Suntory Whisky's centenary. Nestled deep in Mt. Kaikomagatake, The Hakushu Distillery draws on its unique natural surroundings. The illustration on the bottle captures the Hakushu distillery in soft hues of verdant green, representing the forest surrounding the distillery.
Our blenders work with peat, while softening the palate using the exceptional mountain water of the area, filtered through ancient granite rocks. This creates a fresh and gentle smoky single malt whisky, a true revelation in Japanese single malts that must be experienced.

A gently smoky single malt that has been matured for at least 12 years in a combination of casks from Hakushu distillery, on the forested slopes of Mount Kaikomagatake. Fresh aromas of acacia honey, ripe grapefruit, leafy herbs and tendrils of smoke fill the nose, followed by layers of sage, vibrant green apples, pineapple, crisp smoke and green citrus throughout the palate.
