Hibiki Japanese Harmony
Blended
Hibiki // Japan
Introduced in 2015, Hibiki Japanese Harmony is a blended whisky from Suntory, drawing on malt and grain whiskies from the Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita distilleries. It is a non-age-stated expression within the Hibiki lineup, which has been produced since 1989.
Both the bottle design and the blend are inspired by the 24 seasons of the traditional Japanese lunar calendar. The blend incorporates whiskies aged in a range of cask types, including American white oak, ex-sherry, and Japanese Mizunara oak.

Tasting Notes
"Japanese Harmony has a light, floral nose. There's more complexity there, too, with oak, an herbal background and faint Sherry notes. On the palate, you’ll find that Sherry sweetness shining through, with candied fruits and honey, along with a creamy mouthfeel. The whisky is smooth with no burn on a medium length finish, backed by lasting notes of oak and more honey. This is one that could be enjoyed either neat or on the rocks. "
