Suntory Hibiki Blossom Harmony Whisky, 2022 Limited Edition

Hibiki meaning “Resonance” in Japanese, was created to honor Suntory’s philosophy
of living in harmony with people and nature.

When Harmony Blossoms 
The Blossoms have always been an occasion for celebration in Japan, marking both the beginning and end of our traditional year. There are as many farewells as there are hellos, inspiring us to appreciate life as it blooms. Gathering around the flowering Sakura trees brings us closer together with those we love.

Hibiki Blossom Harmony captures this joyful intention. A rare selection of whiskies finished in sakura wood casks have been specially blended with diverse malt and grain whiskies, well matured over many seasons, to create this particular Hibiki. What results is a Hibiki created to remind us how precious life can be. To be shared with those who make us blossom.

Inspired by Sakura
The House of Suntory has been exploring and experimenting with various wood types for many years. The Sakura cask in particular was one that intrigued
Fifth Generation Chief Blender Shinji Fukuyo.

Tasting Notes

Color: Amber

Palate: Smooth mouthfeel, expanding fragrance, acacia honey, french pear, and a
refined sweetness suggestive of sakura mochi

Nose: Wafting floral scents, sakura, sweet almond, fragrant olive

Finish: A long-lasting, rich, and brilliant aftertaste

Auchentoshan 18 Years Single Malt Whisky


Matured in American bourbon oak for over eighteen years. The result: a refreshing single malt whisky with the added infusion of ripe citrus and green tea, the warmth of toasted almonds and the signature smooth, delicate, Auchentoshan taste.
 
Colour: Deep golden summer barley
Nose: Fresh tobacco leaf - then sweet with a hint of caramelised sugars, green tea and toasted almonds
Palate: A floral freshness with sweet barley sugar at first - this gently ebbs to reveal a tangerine zestiness  
Finish: A long, lingering and well balanced dram that invigorates the mouth
