Suntory Kakubin

Smooth. Very light. Spicy.

At the price point of ~$30/700mL this whisky feels like a steal. Every time I make an order from Japan I throw in a bottle of the yellow, black, or white label. It's cheap and the taste is way above its price. The black is the best of the group in my opinion. The yellow is lighter in color and flavor, but is an excellent value that is impossible to pass up if available for <$40.

Easy. Simple. Japanese. The good old times. Delicious. Slight vanilla with extremely covert senses of vanilla and smoke. A easy whiskey to drink and enjoy the evening. I enjoyed this while in Okinawa and I’ll always remember those times. 🇯🇵

Easy drinking. Vanilla/fruity nodes. Very Japanese style. Good for the ladies.
