These tasting notes were just about spot on:

Nose
: Heavy, dense. Faint yet enticing cedar aromas.
Palate
: Smooth and sweet. Lingering cedar notes. Well-ripened fruit.
Finish
: Sweet and sour interlaced with refreshing cedar notes.

(I personally didn’t pick up on the sour notes much though)
Great info here! I also picked up a set and planning on opening it up! Maybe I will wait after I visit the Hakushu Distillery and try them there at first!!
