Suntory Hibiki 21 Years Old Limited Edition 2015 1st Edition

An exquisite embodiment of Japanese artistry and nature’s harmony, Suntory Hibiki 21 Years Old Limited Edition 2015 – 1st Edition celebrates the enduring philosophy of balance that defines Hibiki. Released to commemorate the beauty of Japanese seasons and craftsmanship, this edition features a specially designed bottle adorned with kacho-fugetsu—the traditional motifs of flowers, birds, wind, and moon—symbolising the harmony between humanity and the natural world. Within lies a masterful blend of malt and grain whiskies, each matured for over two decades in carefully selected Mizunara and sherry casks, culminating in an orchestration of elegance and depth.

Tasting Notes:
Nose: Refined and expressive. Layers of ripe plum, honeyed figs, and dark cherry intertwine with hints of sandalwood, rose, and Japanese incense. Delicate notes of vanilla and sweet oak lend a graceful warmth.
Palate: Silky and complex. Waves of rich dried fruit, black chocolate, and Mizunara spice unfold harmoniously with accents of toffee, cinnamon, and orange zest. A subtle touch of smoke adds depth and structure.
Finish: Long and resonant. Lingering notes of sweet oak, spiced plum, and incense drift into a serene balance of fruit and wood, echoing the poise of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

Suntory Hibiki 21 Years Old Limited Edition 2015 – 1st Edition is not merely a whisky—it is a poetic reflection of Japan’s natural beauty and cultural grace. A symphony of age, balance, and artistry, crafted for those who appreciate the rare intersection of tradition, design, and timeless flavour.
