Tasting Notes
Nose: The nose of the Whisky is very subtle and clean. You can detect some sweet notes, as well as hints of apple and pear, hints of herbs, and a slight burn from the alcohol.
Plate: On the palate, you get a whiff of sweetness paired with fruity notes of apples, pears, and longan. A few spicy notes from pepper as well a slight citrus taste round off the very light taste.
Finish: The finish is comparably short and dry. A light warmth and a mix of honey and herbal notes dominate the finish.

As a lover of Hibiki Master Select which is ridiculously hard to get hold of, I tried this on a whim and was not disappointed. The above tasting notes are pretty much spot on. This is so smooth and creamy and irresistibly drinkable. Well worth the money.
