Hibiki Blender's Choice

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 43%

First released in Japan in 2018 at a time when Hibiki 17 Year Old was starting to be phased out, Hibiki Blender's Choice has been crafted from malt and grain whiskies spanning a range of ages from Suntory's Yamazaki, Hakushu and Chita distilleries. A more premium, and somewhat harder to find release than Hibiki's standard flagship Japanese Harmony, Blender's Choice also features whiskies matured in wine casks.

Crème brûlée with red apple skin, sandalwood and rich dates developing.
