The Hibiki 21 years old Limited edition 2015
Special design, epitomizing the Beauty of Japanese Nature. This Suntory Whisky “Hibiki 21 years” released in 2015, it has Mt. Fuji drawn in austere black and white colors, with Japanese plum, pine and bamboo painted on its skirts, symbolizing happiness and good fortune. Also echoed is the Japanese sensitivity to the transience of seasons. Deeply aromatic, quintessentially Japanese, and aesthetically appealing, the design perfectly captures the spirit of the “Hibiki”.
Hibiki 21 was named World’s Best Blended Whisky at the 2014 World Whiskies Awards and was awarded 96 points in Jim Murray’s 2014 Whisky Bible. Dr. Whisky says it’s ‘Unbelievably balanced, and dangerously drinkable’. So basically, it’s pretty good stuff!
