The 2026 presentation portrays the distillery’s bird sanctuary and its forest-conservation story; the year is part of the release identity, not an age statement. This Japanese single malt is offered in a 700ml bottle at 43% ABV (86 proof).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuntory’s tasting notes describe pineapple, vanilla cream and roasted hojicha on the nose. A light, soft palate brings a gentle wasanbon-sugar sweetness and faint bitterness, before an ember-smoke and bittersweet finish. The forest-themed bottle and edition-specific presentation set this release apart from standard Hakushu and from the other Story of the Distillery years. No numerical age statement is claimed for this expression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Suntory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62873852051615,"sku":"VWS200435696","price":158.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/2338\/1151\/files\/The-Hakushu-Single-Malt-Japanese-Whisky-2026-Ed-39.jpg?v=1790302420","url":"https:\/\/forwhiskeylovers.com\/products\/the-hakushu-single-malt-japanese-whisky-2026-edition-700ml","provider":"ForWhiskeyLovers.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
