Unparalleled smoothness. Chestnuts and dried fruit. Oak and leather. At the Yamazaki distillery. — 6 years ago

This is not the Yamazaki or the Hibiki but it’s an easy drinking solidly constructed whiskey. More sweet and fruity in style—caramel and toffee covered apple, white raisin, peat and fresh cut flowers. This is the Summer shandy of whiskeys. Light on its feet and super inviting. — 8 years ago

We enjoyed blending Hibiki by ourselves at Yamazaki distillery. It was fun experience:-) I like Hibiki genshu of Mizunara. — 9 years ago

Gorgeous tawny color. Rich aromas of caramel, honey, cigar box, licorice, with bacon fat, oily notes in the mid palate and dark chocolate hints. Dried figs, raisins, and raspberry flavors as well. Integrated tannins. Long syrupy finish. — 9 years ago

Oloroso sherry in color. Nose: earthy aromas, peat, turf, wet forest floor, Japanese cedar, dried herbs, vanilla, cigar smoke, and subtle green fruits in the background. Thick, syrupy mouthfeel. Palate: Up front, loads of peat, campfire smoke, pine needles, and incense. Dried apples, creme brûlée, and Asian pear round out the luxurious finish. Yamazaki gets a lot of the attention, but aged Hakushu is the mountains and forests of Japan in a glass! — 9 years ago
