Hakushu 12 Year Old is a single malt from Suntory’s Hakushu Distillery. Aged 12 years, it delivers a bright, herb-forward profile with green fruit, citrus, and a subtle, integrated smoke. Crisp and refreshing, it works well neat, with a splash of water, or on the rocks for a lighter, aromatic sipper.
