__ ? the Japanese characters for the skylark (hibari), the much-loved herald of spring in the East and West, and for this masterfully blended whisky. Like the clear, exquisite song of a small bird, it features an agreeably pure, mellow flavor. Carefully selected unprocessed whiskies and pure, natural spring water are expertly blended to create this distinctive whisky. NOSE: Faint smoky accent. Sweet aroma, redolent of pear and dried fruit. TASTE: A slightly edgy attack. Well-rounded and mellow.
