Description

Suntory Whisky Kakubin, affectionately known as 'Kakubin' (meaning square bottle) due to its distinctive angular shape and tortoise-shell pattern, is a classic Japanese blended whisky first created in 1937 by Suntory's founder, Shinjiro Torii. It is a blend of whiskies from Suntory's Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries, and sometimes Chita, known for its sweet aroma, rich flavor, and dry finish. It is Japan's best-selling whisky and is particularly popular for highballs.

Delicate notes of honey, lemon, green apple, butter cookie, hazelnut, with floral and fruity tones, brown sugar, caramel, plums, sweet candies, nuts, cinnamon, vanilla, and light coconut water.
Palate
A light, almost creamy entry with hints of vanilla, caramel, popcorn, apple, dried coconut, baked almonds, mildly fruity, dried grass, and gently spicy notes.
Finish
Fresh and dry, with hay-like and orchard fruit flavors, lingering with a touch of cinnamon and peppery spice, and a satisfying aftertaste.
