Tasting Notes
Hibiki 17 Year Old is a harmonious symphony of flavors, crafted with skill and patience by the masterminds at Suntory. This iconic Japanese blend welcomes you with a bouquet of honey, wax, and resinous oak, gently caressed by the aroma of smoked cacao and cooked fruit notes. As it graces your palate, a rich sweetness unfolds, revealing a delightful medley of citrusy peels, raisins, and velvety custard, all perfectly balanced with a zesty kick and the warmth of oak. The finish lingers, leaving a lasting impression of oak, cocoa, and sherried peels. Matured in the revered mizunara oak casks at Yamazaki, this 17-year-old whisky is a true embodiment of harmony, a masterpiece that seamlessly blends aged malt and grain whiskies into a sublime and unforgettable experience.
