[Review] Hibiki BLOSSOM HARMONY 2021

A fragrant aroma and round taste that will add a festive touch to any celebration. This is a delicate blend of a wide variety of grains that have deepened their character over the course of many seasons, combined with rare, long-term aged grains that have been aged in cherry barrels. The result is a special Hibiki with a fragrant floral aroma, a harmonious round taste, and a rich, refreshing aftertaste.

[Review] AKKESHI Single Malt Japanese Whisky Boushu

The key malt is peated Quercus mongolica. The rich sweetness of the Akkeshi malt may attract fireflies. Please enjoy the early summer time with the malt grown up listening to the sea noise of Akkeshi Bay. Fireflies are drawn on the deep green base of the label design.
