Hatozaki Pure Malt Japanese Whisky

Claro, spicy e com álcool bem pronunciado. Final forte, intenso e com drinkability média.

Interesting nose. Sandalwood. Dry grass and celery. Strangely, I also get a blue cheese note. The palette is restrained, even with a drop of water. It's dry and warm, with grapefruit, a subtle vanilla and a malty funk. The finish is short with a lingering sweetness and a wisp of smoke.

Nose: Sweet, dried fruit, malt loaf, honey, aromatic, woody Palate: Rich, malt loaf, aromatic spices, dried fruit, vanilla, lightly smoky. Creamy mouthfeel Finish: Medium short finish. Malt, cigar smoke, malt loaf, honey. Sweet and souring aftertaste. Malt loaf, sweet, light smoke and aromatic. Quite enjoyable for 1-2 drams, but not much more than that. Generally OK.

I really enjoyed the smoothness of this lightly coloured Japanese pure malt whisky. Very drinkable.

Peat on the nose and taste, a bit sweet with a peppery finish
