  • Honey: A whisper of honey adds a touch of sweetness and complexity.

Palate: Light-bodied and refreshing, it dances on your tongue like a mountain stream. Citrus and floral notes dominate, their sweetness balanced by a touch of spice and a hint of oak. The Hakushu water shines through, offering a pure and clean character.

Finish: Clean and crisp, with lingering hints of citrus, honey, and green tea. It leaves you feeling refreshed and wanting more.

Food Pairing: This versatile whisky pairs beautifully with lighter fare. Try it with seafood, salads, sushi, or even desserts. Its delicate character won't overpower the flavors of your food, but rather complement them in a harmonious dance.
