As the core entry-level single malt whisky launched by Suntory's Hakushu Distillery in 2014, it was released simultaneously with the Yamazaki "Distiller's Reserve" series. Designed to offer a more accessible price point and stable supply, this expression captures Hakushu's signature "forest distillery" character. Its aroma is defined by fresh notes of green grass, mint, green apple, and lemon peel, accompanied by a delicate smokiness and crisp herbal essence, evoking the sensation of standing in a misty morning forest.
