Whisky Hibiki 'Blossom Harmony' - Limited edition
Hibiki Blossom Harmony 2021 is based on the classic Hibiki Japanese Harmony blended with cherry barrel aged whiskey. This is the first limited edition of Hibiki. As for the taste, Suntory says it is reminiscent of cherry blossoms (sakura), sweet on the palate with a rich, lingering finish.
Launched in March 2015, Hibiki Japanese Harmony celebrates the harmony that exists in Japan between nature and people. Delicate and perfectly balanced, smooth, with subtle aromas, it is composed of more than ten malt and grain whiskies, aged in five different varieties of casks (American white oak, Sherry and Japanese oak, Japan's prized mizunara) and sourced from Suntory's Yamazaki, Hakushu and Chita distilleries.
Hibiki was launched in 1989 to commemorate Suntory’s 90th anniversary. It is not only Japan’s most highly awarded blended whisky, but among the most prestigious and honoured whiskies in the world.
At Suntory, the Master Blender tastes over 300 malt whisky samples a day, having final say on the subtle, refined, and complex flavors of each whisky. "To become a blender at Suntory, one needs to be able to communicate with whiskies that can not speak." The words of founder Sinjiro Torii live in all Suntory blenders' minds. The Art of Blending is a continuous collaboration of blenders of the past and the future.
