Hibiki 21 Year Old Blended Japanese Suntory Whisky 700ml

Seductive, blossoming and subtle, our Hibiki Whisky range celebrates an unrivaled art of blending, fine craftsmanship and a sense of luxury from the House of Suntory.

Combining their two single malt whiskies, Hakushu and Yamazaki, with their corn-based grain whisky, Chita, they create something completely their own. Utilizing a mix of American, European, and Japanese wood this aged a minimum of 21 years and bottled at 86 proof.

"Tasting this whisky was one of those moments where your surroundings come to a halt and all of your senses are heightened. There is a beautiful marriage of grain and fruit expressed in this whisky. The sherry casks are quite evident with stone fruit and cherry mixed with warm baking spices and a light floral incense. The malt, however, is standing firm and not being over-powered by the fruit. There is a gentle wisp of smoke with the finish and it acts much like adding salt and pepper to your dish. Kudos to their master blender for a harmonious and elegant whisky." - Stephanie Moreno, Distiller (99 Points)

"...it's hard to raise the bar much higher than this. Stunning." - Jim Murray, Whisky Bible (96 Points)
