** Be aware!!** This does have peat. It’s very light, but it is there for those who don’t like it. It’s not a very overwhelming whiskey and not very diverse. And $3 less I can buy Eagle Rare, which has world class flavor. Save your money for a better Japanese whiskey.
This was my first experience with Japanese whiskey, so this review might not be too fair, since I don't know much. I like it, it's lighter feeling than bourbon or scotch. Nose is a little strong alcohol feel. The taste has a little bit of a floral taste to it, to me it tastes like there is slight hints of gin in it. I want to try this again, and see if I get more out of it the next time. I definitely will be using this in cocktails, feels like it would be great in that.
It's a very good, very 'sippable,' and very Highball-able Whisky that's enjoyable when it's used as prescribed by Suntory themselves. It's not versatile, like a JWR, but it's not made to be so. A little ice, in Half-Rock style, or the aforementioned Highball, and you have the perfect evening......or Breakfast!
