Hibiki is not only Japan’s most highly awarded blended whisky, but also among the most prestigious whiskies in the world. The Hibiki Japanese Harmony is the culmination of nearly a century of whisky-making from Japan's first ever whisky producer: Suntory.

The production process is very similar to that for Scotch whisky, and the product is the closest in style to Scotch of all non-Scotch whisky. The Blend seduces connoisseurs with its special mildness, which presents itself with aromas of flowers and sandalwood. I tried Hibiki Japanese Harmony Whisky on a few occasions, I’m not a big whiskey drinker but I really enjoyed this, it had a nice taste not so strong as other whiskies. The legendary Hibiki represents true harmony, the ideal of perfection, the paragon of 'The Art of Japanese Whisky' and its artisans.Expect delicate, honeyed florals from their use of fragrant sakura wood as well as generous tropical. The blend itself was crafted by the Suntory Whisky blending team, led by Master Blender Shingo Torii. I've tried this whisky neat, with ice, and with a range of mixers and I'd say it's a pleasing and extremely versatile spirit. Hibiki hit me like a blended whisky acidic nose and assaulted the throat and back of my nose, quite smooth on the palette no afterburn but it felt like an AI version of whisky rather than a whisky itself if that makes sense ! Suntory Hibiki Whisky is the epitome of light-yet-decadent, flavour-filled notes of zesty orange peel and fresh apricots which are married together by seductive white chocolate and a spicy black pepper and cinnamon balance that keeps you coming back for more.

They are a harmonious blend of Suntory’s Yamazaki and Hakashu malt whiskies and Chita grain whisky that resound with calm complexity and “Wa”; oneness.
