Fuji Single Grain Whisky - 46% ABV 

Silk, Structure, and the Spirit of the Mountain 

To understand this bottle, one must understand Fuji's quiet uniqueness. While most grain whiskies rely solely on continuous stills for mass efficiency and neutral output, Fuji employs three techniques: - A column still, for light and smooth notes (a la Canadian whisky).

A doubler-style kettle, echoing American bourbon traditions with sweet, rich notes. - And a Scottish-style batch still, lending weight and malt-like character. These are not leftovers. They are building blocks. The result is a grain whisky that is curated, not produced. 

Matured in American oak, the whisky has time to stretch, breathe, and gather grace. The nose is instantly inviting: caramel cream, grilled banana, and vanilla sponge meet subtle hints of sandalwood, orange blossom, and pine resin. There's a remarkable freshness to it - like walking into a patisserie just after the morning trays come out of the oven. On the palate, the whisky opens with smooth authority. Butterscotch, peach skin, and maple-dipped cereal glide across the tongue, followed by mid-palate notes of baking spice, green apple, and a flicker of white chocolate. 

The 46% ABV brings extra texture and grip without heat - a warm presence, not a burn. There's even a teasing trace of mint tea and hazelnut praline, lending contrast and charm. The finish is long, clean, and deeply satisfying - vanilla pod, oak spice, and a lingering whisper of coconut cream and lemon balm. It doesn't so much fade as settle - like sunlight through misted glass. 

A Grain Whisky with a Master's Voice

Fuji Single Grain is a whisky that could easily fool you for a low-rye bourbon or a well-aged Lowland malt - but it's neither. It's something unique. Something that could only have come from a distillery with the tools, the patience, and the intent to treat grain whisky not as a supporting act, but as the headline. This is not just smooth whisky. This is characterful grain, layered with purpose and distilled with poise. 

Final Thought

Fuji Single Grain Whisky is a love letter to grain - and a reminder that when treated with respect, it can be every bit as expressive and nuanced as malt. A whisky for the thoughtful drinker, the quiet collector, or anyone who believes that refinement and richness are not opposites. It's not just a grain whisky. It's precision and grace, bottled beneath the mountain.
