Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh-cut grass, green apple, mint leaf, basil, pear and a delicate wisp of woodsmoke.

Palate

Crisp green orchard fruit, kiwi, cucumber, gentle malt sweetness, soft herbal smoke and mineral freshness.

Finish

Clean and refreshing with lingering smoke, mint and green apple — like exhaling forest air.

Expert Review

9.1/10

Suntory's mountain malt — lightly peated, granite-water fresh, and tasting like a walk through a Japanese cedar forest at dawn.
