Hakushu 12 Year Old Japanese Whisky, 100th Anniversary Edition is a limited-edition design of Suntory's flagship Hakushu 12 Year Old single malt, released to mark the centennial of the House of Suntory. The special label carries an illustration of the Hakushu Distillery in soft hues of green, representing the forest that surrounds it. Bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof).

A Centennial Design

Suntory celebrated 100 years of Japanese whisky in 2023, a century since founder Shinjiro Torii established the Yamazaki Distillery and 50 years since Hakushu was built. The centennial packaging is an homage to "Monozukuri," the Japanese principle of elevated craftsmanship, and depicts Torii's dream of making whisky blessed with the riches of Japanese nature. Only the packaging is exclusive to this edition; inside is the same Hakushu 12 Year Old.

The Whisky

Hakushu 12 is made from carefully selected malt whiskies, each aged a minimum of 12 years in various casks. Distilled at Suntory's forest distillery in the foothills of the Japanese Southern Alps, using pure granite-filtered water, it's known for a fresh, fruity profile with a gentle smokiness.

Tasting Notes

  • Color: champagne gold.
  • Nose: basil, pine needle, and green apple.
  • Palate: sweet pear, mint, and kiwi.
  • Finish: green tea with a subtle smokiness.

How to Enjoy It

Sip it neat, or add a drop of water to open up the fresh, herbal notes. It also makes a refreshing Japanese highball, served long over ice with soda.
