About this bottle
Suntory Pure Malt Whisky 1991 Furudaru Shiage is a discontinued Japanese pure malt bottled at 43% ABV, the companion to Suntory's 1981 Kioke Shikomi. Furudaru shiage means "old barrel finish," and the label's red characters state that the whisky was filtered through bamboo charcoal; the back label points to sherry casks for the finish. Suntory did not name the distilleries, and it is usually described as Hakushu malt or a vatting of Hakushu and Yamazaki. It is the gentler of the pair: caramel, honey, roasted nuts and malt, with a little cinnamon and ginger. A bottle for Japanese whisky collectors, and for drinkers who like a rounder, sweeter malt.
How to drink Suntory Pure Malt Whisky 1991 Furudaru Shiage
The softer of the two Suntory Pure Malts, it works neat without any water. If you want it colder, use one large cube instead of a handful. Too scarce for highballs.
