Composed of single malts matured for at least a quarter of a century, Hakushu 25 year old surprises by the contrast of its woody, fruity and slightly smoky aromas. On the nose, notes of plum, humidor and caramel are joined on the palate by aromas of crème brûlée, sage, lavender and roasted pineapple. The long and pleasantly smoky finish will leave on the palate some notes of hinoki the Japanese cypress. A single malt of extreme depth and astonishing maturity, it will be enjoyed slowly and will delight the most curious and lucky Japanese whisky lovers, given its rarity. Founded in 1973 in the heart of a lush forest in the Japanese Alps, the Hakushu distillery was at its peak the most productive distillery in the world, but today it is best known for its light, fresh and invigorating whiskies.

The history of Japanese whisky is the history of Shinjiro Torii, the founder of Suntory. In 1923, Shinjiro Torii envisioned a whisky filled with the essence of Japanese nature and hand-crafted by artisans through a patient process of enhancing the work of nature. He dreamt of creating subtle, refined, yet complex whisky that would suit the delicate palate of the Japanese and enhance their dining experience.

Though initially inspired by traditional Scottish whisky, Torii envisioned a Japanese approach by choosing a terrain and climate completely different from those of Scotland. Torii chose the region of Yamazaki, on the outskirts of Kyoto as the birthplace of Japanese whisky.

Between 1955-1970, Suntory cultivated the growth of Japan's whisky culture by opening Torys bars throughout the country. At Torys bars, Suntory revolutionized the way to drink whisky by introducing "Highball"

Keizo Saji, Suntory’s second Master Blender, took a momentous step forward in pursuing Shinjiro Torii’s vision for whiskies rich in Japanese nature and craftsmanship. On the misty, calm shores of Chita Peninsula, Keizo built a distillery dedicated to the highest-quality Japanese grain whisky.

1984 - Suntory Single Malt Whisky Yamazaki was released, 1989 - Hibiki, 1994 - Hakushu, 2015 - Chita, and 2016 - Toki.
