Hibiki 40 Years Old

Hibiki 40 Years Old is a masterpiece of Japanese whisky, a rare and extraordinary expression that represents the pinnacle of blending artistry and tradition. Crafted by The House of Suntory, this exceptional release celebrates over a century of expertise and dedication, embodying harmony, elegance, and the soul of Japan in every drop.

This stunning blend combines five supremely aged whiskies, each matured for over 40 years in Mizunara, Spanish, and American oak casks. Guided by the visionary Chief Blender Shinji Fukuyo, these rich and complex whiskies have been transformed into an exquisitely balanced composition. The spirit of omotenashi (Japanese hospitality) and the serenity of temples are reflected in its delicate yet profound flavors, capturing the essence of 40 seasonal cycles and the care of three generations of master blenders.

Every aspect of Hibiki 40 Years Old is a tribute to Japanese artistry and tradition. The whisky is housed in a 30-faceted bottle handcrafted by Kagami Crystal, suppliers to the Japanese imperial family. The intricate design features traditional maki-e lacquer, mother-of-pearl inlay, and gold accents, offering a mesmerizing view of the golden whisky within. The outer box, crafted from 12 varieties of Japanese wood, mirrors the 12 faces of the bottle and is adorned with delicate floral motifs that celebrate Japan’s changing seasons.

Hibiki 40 Years Old is not merely a whisky—it is a cultural treasure, an unparalleled experience, and a timeless homage to the art of Japanese whisky-making. This limited release is destined to become a collector’s dream and a legacy of excellence.
