Über Hibiki Whisky

Hibiki, like everything else produced under the Suntory house of brands, was first inspired by Scotch whisky’s rugged yet complex nature. With a similar amber coloring but a more delicate crafting, Hibiki pulls together the best of traditional whisky with a refined edge.

Hibiki is more than just a mere brand of whisky: it’s a work of art, a harmonious fusion, and a brilliant example of everything the Japanese whisky industry is known best for. Hibiki is careful, measured, and specific. Every element of this incredible whisky was designed precisely so, with no margin for error or any kind of supplementation. And that’s something you’ll spot every step of the way.

Hibiki 12 Year Old (50cl) Details

Hibiki means ‘harmony’ in Japanese. The beautiful 24 faces of the bottle symbolise the ancient tradition of “Sekki” – the age-old Japanese calendar. It has been followed for centuries and represents the 24 Japanese seasons.

Yamazaki. Hakushu. Hibiki. When a Westerner thinks of Japanese whisky, they think of names under the House of Suntory. Which makes sense, of course — Shinjiro Torii’s company, founded in 1923, is Japan’s first and most popular whisky maker. But it wasn’t always that way. Incredibly well constructed with a stunning range of flavors means even the most budget-friendly bottles of Hibiki should be savored rather than gulped down.We deliver to a number of international destinations including the USA.

Stone fruits (apricots and peaches) mix it up with stewed apples, orange liqueur and just a touch of spit-roasted pineapple. This expressive fruitiness is offset by a gluey/solventy note of grain – this more or less passes after some time spent in the glass. Fruits are a combination of ripe and fresh and slightly reduced – but all of them are pleasantly aromatic from sandalwood, incense and cherry blossom. Running throughout – golden toasted cereals, cut grass and honeycomb. A few drops of water brings out some darker fruits – red berries and currants (but not quite plums for me) and adds additional sweetness – toffee and fudge. Whiskybase B.V.

Whiskybase B.V. is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under no. 52072819. Taste: A decent arrival – not underpowered – but at the same time, not singing from the rafters either. Less overtly fruity than the nose, but still presenting apples, tart lemons and a healthy addition of berries (perhaps the merest hint of something approaching a plum?!). Burnt toffee and honeycomb provide some richness to the composition. The palate feels slightly resinous and certainly has plenty of wood influence – aromatic as with the nose – but feeling a little engineered now. This influence grows with the development adding ginger and pepper spicing and well as an increasing bitterness. Reduction brings out more of the sweeter elements – fudge again, sappy oak and vanilla.Since then, the brand has gone from strength to strength, incorporating delicate Japanese charm and masterful blending into cask after cask. Nowadays, Hibiki’s symbolic of what ultra-premium Japanese whisky is really capable of.
