The Third Farewell: Hakushu Single Malt, Aged 12 years
Light runs along the glass trapped in golden yellow spirals as I swirl you around. A little dance, of course, before I descend into the soft cage of your delight. An epic ballad born of the mountains, you reveal different metaphors with each reading. Under the gaze of the crescent moon this goodbye-shaped night what shall you be?
