Fits what you expect from an easy to drink, smooth and slightly light Japanese whisky but will a bit more smoke finish. Very nice, and a great addition to a collection.

Easy drinking. Honey, cinnamon taste.

Smoother than I remember. Honey and peach with a lite spice chaser.

My current personal favorite whisky; it's incredibly smooth and leads with fruity floral notes on the scent, while having a complex flavor between more sweet honey and toffee flavors and the more fruity finish imparted by the port, wine, and sherry barrels used in its aging. Would highly recommend.

My first time trying a Japanese Whisky. Has a good flavor and very smooth to drink. On the rocks was best for me.

Super smooth, a warm, very neutral taste

Rebecca, Jun 16, 2019

Smooth. Caramel.

Easy drinking but uneventful

James, Jan 30, 2019

Cedar and toffee aroma with a similar flavor. Easy drinking but fairly simple. Would like more complexity.

My first Japanese whisky experience. Tastes like a blended scotch with a very short, dry finish. Some sherry sweetness. Not a bad drink, just not my preference. Good experience.

The nose is very strong and dark, like plums, peat, and sherry. The flavor is, by contrast, quite light and fruity. There is a distinct sweetness to it, and a pleasant peat after flavor. Definitely one of my favorite drams, especially because of the stark contrast between the aroma and flavor.

Just like most of the Japanese whisky, it is a very pleasant, easy scotch, a bit on the sweet side to my taste

Amit, Aug 23, 2018

Strong aroma, caramel spice $

Eduardo, Aug 19, 2018

Clean and fragrant whisky, notes of vanilla, caramel and spices with some honey. A bit strong in palate and medium long finish with oak aftertaste

The Caramel, Cherry, Sherry and Honey really make for a smooth, sweet whiskey. This is a fine addition to any home bar for the whiskey initiate.

This isn't a heavy whisky, it's elegant and nuanced. The Japanese really elevate blending to an art form. This product is a crazy good deal.

Steven, Feb 26, 2018

Could be better for the price. Nothing really stands out for me in this whiskey, kind of plain. Won't be buying this again.

Joe, Jan 24, 2018

Good middle shelf spirit smooth but is missing something not bad for the price

Amanda, Jan 23, 2018

It had great potential but it comes off as confused as to where it's going. It's all over the board and doesn't follow a nice linear transition between flavors.

Jonathan, Aug 30, 2017

It's a $30 bottle of whiskey. It's good to have around for drunk/cheap friends or to mix with Coke. You get what you pay for but, as far as $30 bottles go, it's pretty good.

Jared, Aug 24, 2017

My first whisky. I thought it was pretty strong. Very woodsy or smokey? I can't really say

John, Jun 12, 2017

Not sure yet, still have more work to do on bottle before i decide if i like it

Scott, Jun 10, 2017

This was probably the worst whiskey I've ever tasted in my entire life. It is completely unpalatable. The taste is completely on describable. It's a mixture between turpentine and linseed oil.

Kim, Apr 26, 2017

This was smooth and good Sorry to say I drank it right away!description was unique and true

guest, Apr 3, 2017

Nice

Adam, Mar 31, 2017

First Japanese whisky. A lot of unexpected floral notes makes it hard for me to compare. Don't hate it, but don't love it.

Boyd, Mar 28, 2017

Very clean, not complex but good. Spice on the backend

Lorenzo, Mar 10, 2017

Not sure why it says 1.6 on the rating. Unfortunately I ordered this prior to Flaviar. This Japanese is very different. At 80 proof this whiskey starts off very slow, not much happening at beginning, but leaves you with a great vanilla/honey hit on the palate with a small oak hit. Great start off to Japanese whiskey, try this first in your sampling and follow with a stronger Japanese whiskey and you'll gain a true appreciation for their craft. More a 6 on my scale.
