Black Label Taketsuru Pure Malt Whisky
I bought this for the winter months and finished the last of it over the weekend. This is a blended malt named in honour of Masataka Taketsuru, the father of Japanese Whisky. He was the first Japanese who mastered Whisky making in Scotland and brought this expertise back to Japan. It was an incredibly pure and rich Whisky with a certain smokiness. I don’t drink enough Whisky to know the difference but this could easily have been Scotch to my palate. 43% ABV. — 2 years ago
They are wonderful whiskies. I had the pleasure of visiting the distillery in 2006…wish I had saved a few bottles! Highly recommend a visit!
Totally agree Andrew. In 2018 I had a skiing trip to Niseko with my son and many of their better whiskies seem to come from the Island of Hokkaido.

People are harsh on the ratings here. This is a light whiskey with an apple finish. It’s exactly what you would expect from a Japanese whiskey. Not heavy power. Light. Easy to drink. The apple finish is absolutely there and is delightful. This is any drink for those who want something that doesn’t knock you over and has a fruity taste. I’m a fan with the right context. — a month ago
