This whisky exhibits a brilliant golden color, heralding a vibrant nose with top notes of sage, ripe green apple, and luscious aromas of ripe pineapple. On the palate, the Hakushu Peated Malt 18 Years reveals a palette of smoky and herbal flavors, enhanced by touches of grapefruit, and elevated by acacia honey. The finish is persistent, marked by a contrast between fresh green citrus notes and a subtle hint of smoke.

At Hakushu, the work with peat lies at the heart of Tsukuriwake, the art of diversity in whisky-making. The distillery carefully selects different types of malt and applies specific fermentation, distillation, and maturation techniques to create whiskies with varied profiles. This 18-year-old, aged for an extended period in the Hakushu region where the water is exceptionally pure and soft, is a complex expression of Hakushu's typical smoky character. It embodies the depth of Hakushu's commitment and expertise, showcasing Japanese peat in all its complexity and elegance.

The Hakushu distillery, through its Tsukuriwake approach, produces more than 100 different malt whiskies, each exploring the many facets of whisky craftsmanship. Over time, our master blenders have refined their understanding of the impact of climate and maturation duration on taste. The Hakushu Peated Malt 18 Years is the result of this expertise, offering a new perspective on Japanese peated malt. True to the inspiration of our previous limited editions, this whisky invites you to rediscover the refinement of Hakushu's peated malt whiskies.

The distillery

The distillery Hakushu

Founded in 1973 by Keizo Saji, son of the founder of Suntory, and inaugurated on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the Yamazaki distillery, Hakushu is nestled at an altitude of 700 meters in the heart of a preserved forest in the Japanese Alps.


Surrounded by lush nature, the distillery benefits from abundant water filtered through the granite layers fed by the Ojira and Jingu rivers, and a humid microclimate with four distinct seasons favoring the aging of whiskies.
