Hakushu Highball
Place large ice cubes up to the brim of a highball glass.
Pour Hakushu gently into the glass. The aroma of Hakushu is released by carefully filling soda water into the glass. (Use 1:3 ratio of whisky to soda water.)
Gently stir the drink--this avoids diluting the flavor.
Garnish with mint.
