Suntory Hakushu 18-Year-Old Peated Malt – 100th Anniversary Limited Edition

Tasting Notes / Description

Nestled in the forested slopes of Japan’s Southern Alps, Hakushu Distillery crafted this special centennial edition to honor Suntory’s 100th anniversary. Aged a minimum of 18 years in a range of casks and bottled at 48% ABV (96° proof), this single malt delivers a restrained, elegant smoke balanced by fresh herbal and citrus undertones.

On the nose, vibrant notes of sage, green apple, and pineapple greet you, with a subtle forest-smoke backdrop. The palate unfolds layers of herbal peat, grapefruit, acacia honey, and gentle fruitiness, finishing with clean, lingering smoke and crisp green citrus. Smoke is present but never overpowering—expressed in a soft architectural style characteristic of Japanese peated whisky.

This Hakushu 18 Peated Malt is distinguished by its refined use of peat tied to the brand’s herbal signature, combined with its rarity as a 100th-anniversary edition—making it a desirable and elegant expression of Japanese whisky.
