Honey, ginger, and granola aroma with a sweet honey, sweet granola, light green apple, and hints of vanilla taste. Medium light toasted granola and green apple finish. Not aged very long according to the light color but, Suntory does amazing things with their whisky across the board. Love the transparency. I trust two Japanese whisky companies and this is one of them. I compared this to Hibiki thinking Hibiki would totally jump way ahead but, this is actually pretty close.

Aroma of honey, ginger, and granola with a taste of sweet honey, sweet granola, light green apple, and hints of vanilla. The finish is medium-light with toasted granola and green apple. The light color suggests it wasn't aged for very long, but Suntory excels with their whisky across the board. I appreciate the openness. I have confidence in two Japanese whisky companies, and this is one of them.
Consistently smooth from beginning to end. Begins with notes of vanilla and concludes with a subtle honey flavor.
Nice soft aroma, with a taste of sweet cookies, vanilla, and caramel.
Light but not overwhelming! Perfect
Smooth from start to finish
