Hibiki 21 Year Old is one of the most revered Japanese whiskies ever released, representing the pinnacle of Suntory’s blending mastery. Crafted from a carefully selected combination of malt and grain whiskies aged a minimum of 21 years, this expression showcases extraordinary balance, depth, and refinement. Extended maturation in a variety of cask types, including Japanese Mizunara oak, contributes to its unmistakable complexity and elegance.

Due to limited production and the long aging requirements, Hibiki 21 has become increasingly scarce worldwide. It has earned numerous international awards and is widely regarded as a benchmark for ultra premium Japanese whisky. This is a bottle designed not only for exceptional sipping, but also for long term collecting, as availability continues to diminish year over year.
