Nice but not in the same league as Macallan would be better sold in 70cl bottles
Love me whisky – got one of these when it won awards – wondered what all the fuss was about – not disappointed one of my favs. lovely plummy woody sweet nose and a nice orangey / marmalade with a nice tingle at the end – beautiful. Great present for a whisky lover or a whisky party.
One of the smoothest whiskies. Great taste that juist gets better. Just finished my last bottle will be missed.
The first Japanese whisky that I tried – and although I have tried better since (namely the Yamazaki 12) this is still one of my favourites. Fantastic. I have also bought a bottle of the Hibiki 17 but I’m saving that for a special occasion!
