Suntory Hibiki 40 Year Old 700ml

A Masterpiece of Japanese Craftsmanship and Tradition

With a legacy crafted through the care of three generations of Chief Blenders, Hibiki 40 Years Old is the pinnacle of Japanese whisky artistry. Aged for four decades in Mizunara, Spanish, and American oak casks, this exceptional blend embodies the essence of harmony and precision, hallmarks of Japanese culture.

Chief Blender Shinji Fukuyo's expertise has transformed these meticulously aged whiskies into an exquisitely balanced expression, inspired by the serenity of Japanese temples and the spirit of omotenashi—gracious hospitality.

Tasting Notes

  • Color: A radiant golden amber, reflecting its deep maturation in premium oak casks.
  • Nose: A delicate bouquet of citrus and spice, with dried apricot, ripened Japanese loquat, hints of lemon peel, and a whisper of clove.
  • Palate: Silky smooth with layers of dried fig, subtle yuzu, and sweet acacia honey, enhanced by the warmth of roasted cacao.
  • Finish: A soothing and spiced finale that lingers gracefully.

Majestic Craftsmanship

Hibiki 40 Years Old is presented in an extraordinary 30-faceted bottle crafted by Kagami Crystal, renowned glassmakers to the Japanese imperial family. Adorned with traditional maki-e, mother-of-pearl inlay, and gold lacquer, the bottle is a true work of art, offering an enchanting view of the amber liquid within.

The outer box mirrors this meticulous attention to detail, crafted from 12 varieties of Japanese wood, each representing one of Japan’s changing seasons. Delicately adorned with floral and grass motifs in maki-e lacquer, it captures the vibrancy of nature’s resonance—the essence of Hibiki.

A Testament to Nature and Time
