Suntory Hakushu Heavily Peated
Smoky flavor from the peated malt is the essence that gives
Hakushu its taste. In this single malt, the malted barley has been given an
extra dose of peat smoke while drying before it’s fermented in wooden wash
backs and distilled in direct fire still pots. The whisky is then stored in
American white oak bourbon casks to age.
