Hibiki Blended Japanese Whisky 17 Year Old
In stock
Simply one of the most luxurious whiskies on the market. A blend of well aged malt whisky from the Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries, combined with old stocks from Suntory's grain distillery, Chita.
Great combination of sweet, spice, oak, aromatics and fruit and all in perfect harmony and did i mention how luxurious the mouthfeel and finish is on this? This is evidence that BLEND is NOT a dirty word when it comes to whisky as this would be on my shortlist of the truly great whiskies of the world.
