About this deal

Don’t get me wrong, the Hibiki Harmony is a decent dram but it isn’t a patch on its predecessor and lacks any depth in taste due to its tender youth. Hibiki whisky is known for both its quality and its distinctive fluted bottle; the 24 facets represent the 24 seasons in a Japanese year. George single malt from California, which is light and fruity (aged, depending on the batch, in eau de vie casks).

Agree with all comments above about the Hibiki 17 – the 12 is very nice, but the 17 is just outstanding.

I dont think Suntory would risk its entire brand on whisky, I am sure that they would have conducted proper tests and would not release any whisky that could even have possible trace of radiation. I had read that the Japanese love of artistry, obsessive technical prowess, and passion for the Scottish style of whisky made for a confluence of whiskymaking excellence. Where Mark Littler LTD are acting as an agent for a client and selling a bottle on their behalf this will be noted in the product description. I just had to use Lost In Translation as the movie reference for Suntory Hibiki 12YO, because they both gave me similar feelings.

lovely plummy woody sweet nose and a nice orangey / marmalade with a nice tingle at the end - beautiful.

The Nose: A quite fruity and lively nose full of orange marmalade and red berry jam laced with wonderfully floral honey. Hibiki whisky is amongst the best selling Japanese whiskies, making this 3 bottle collection the perfect opportunity to sample some of the best blended whisky in Japan. The components are aged in a variety of casks including ex-bourbon, ex-sherry, and casks that once held Umeshu, a plum liqueur (making Hibiki 12 unique, as this bottling is the only Suntory product with malt aged in Umeshu casks). However, it really makes the fruit notes dance on the tongue – lots of fresh acidity and green fruits appear. Love me whisky - got one of these when it won awards - wondered what all the fuss was about - not disappointed one of my favs.

Seductive, blossoming and enigmatic, Hibiki Whisky celebrates an unrivaled art of blending, fine craftsmanship and a sense of luxury from the House of Suntory. V. is the Dutch private limited liability company, having its statutory seat in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and its office at Zwaanshals 530, 3035 KS Rotterdam, The Netherlands. However, there’s much more to having a whisky mizuwari than just dumping all the ingredients into a glass and knocking it back, there is recipe and there is ritual as well.Malt whiskies from Hakushu and Yamazaki are carefully married with spirit from grain distillery Chita. Last month, March, Suntory celebrated the 90th anniversary of the Yamazaki Distillery and the House of Suntory Whisky.
