Suntory The Chita (43%)

The Chita is a Japanese single grain whisky from Suntory, bottled at 43%. It was created by Shinji Fukuyo, who calls it the serenity of Japanese whisky, and is named after the Chita Peninsula, with its calm, misty seas. The nose offers crème brûlée, cardamom, acacia honey and blossoming rose. The palate is mild and smooth with a hint of mint and deep honey. The finish is clean and clear, with spiced oak and subtle bittersweet notes.
