Focused and angular. Beautifully constructed but lacking the complexity of the older versions or indeed the blends. It's an attractive, clean, precise Japanese whisky.

Pale amber hue with thin legs. Pears, apricots, orange peel, caramel, and meringue up front. Sandalwood, wet turf, and very slight hints of smoke in the background. Creamy, voluptuous mouthfeel. Integrated alcohol with very little burn. Flavors match the aromas with the addition of toasted oak, dried red fruits, and honey notes. Medium + finish and very smooth. Grab this bad boy before it disappears forever!

It was a bit rough but I imagine that in the right glass it will soften up.

Light style sweet notes. Not really the best at the price.

super smooth, great viscosity, can tell it's made with care and precision.
