Hakushu 25 Year Old Pre-2021, American Oak, Sherry Cask, Japanese Mizunara Oak, Cask #No. 8407, 43%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

89 / 100

The finish sounds like the clearest strength here: long, herbal and nutty, with bittersweet oak at the end. Rich sherry and wood smoke give the palate a strong contrast, making this seem layered rather than straightforward.
