A unique scotch without smokey, peaty flavors. Delicate and complex. Honey and flowery aromatics. Clean. A scotch that my wife can drink straight. It is not a mixing scotch and it didn't pair well with cigars. This is something both my wife and I can enjoy in the kitchen or on the back porch. One of the few worth every penny.

Product description
Given the name, it should come as no surprise that Hibiki Japanese Harmony Whisky is a harmonious blend of Japanese craftsmanship. Considered the paragon of Japanese whisky, Hibiki is a unique blend of several malt and grain whiskies that are meticulously added, resulting in an orchestra of aromas and flavors. Hibiki is the culmination of the Japanese art of blending and expert craftsmanship, with a healthy heaping of luxury thrown in for good measure. The brand was launched in 1989 to celebrate the brand Suntory's 90th birthday, and it's become Japan's most highly awarded blended whisky of all time. More than that, Hibiki takes the honor of being among the most prestigious whiskies the world over. Hibiki Japanese Harmony Whisky is both delicate and luminous with a wonderful complexity. The amber-colored liquid smells of rosemary, rose, lychee and sandalwood, paving the way for a honey-like sweetness with notes of white chocolate and candied orange peel. As for the finish, Hibiki Japanese Haromy is subtle with a hint of Japanese oak, which lingers on the palate. It’s best enjoyed neat, on the rocks or with a bit of water added. Japanese whisky pairs remarkably well with Japanese food, so don't be afraid to drink it with sashimi, sushi or a strong fermented fish. It also makes a wonderful cocktail, such as the Sokaiya, which consists of Hibiki, bitter Sencha green tea and ginger liqueur.

FAQs
Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky is one of the premier whisky blends from the House of Suntory. The House of Suntory is Japan’s oldest distillery, and its whisky products are especially coveted for their craftsmanship and delicate flavors. Given its meticulous blending process, unique palette, and many prestigious industry awards, you can expect a pretty high-end sticker price — a 750mL bottle of Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky will cost in the neighborhood of $100. Japanese whisky is undeniably luxurious and tasty, but be sure to save this bottle for special occasions and definitely avoid bold mixers at all costs.
Absolutely — Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky is held in high esteem in the world of whisky. The House of Suntory distillery, the brand’s revered producer, is the oldest in Japan and pretty much introduced the world to this new, more delicate style of whisky. Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky has won several impressive awards, including a gold medal at the International Spirits Challenge (a competition considered one of the most authoritative in the industry). Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky isn’t just a “good” whisky, it’s one of the finest spirits in the whole world.
Listen — if you’re spending $100 minimum on a bottle of whisky, it seems sacrilegious to dilute its flavor. Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky should be enjoyed neat at room temperature (alongside a plate of fine sushi), though you could drink it over ice or add a little water. Japanese whisky is a totally different style of whisky than the big, bold American versions. Hibiki Japanese Harmony is super delicate, with gentle notes like honey and white chocolate. If you insist on using Hibiki whisky in a cocktail, seek out other popular Japanese flavors like green tea, cherry, or even ginger.
Gifting a bottle of Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky is a truly exceptional gesture for the whisky-lover in your life. If you know someone who enjoys American whisky or bourbon, they’ll undoubtedly appreciate a bottle of this fine Japanese spirit. Hibiki Japanese Harmony hints at several subtle flavors, but sweet honey is predominant on the palette with a gentle, oaky finish. This award-winning blended whisky does come with a hefty price tag (usually at least $100 per bottle), so it’s most appropriate to gift Hibiki Japanese Harmony for truly special celebrations, such as retirement parties, weddings, or a notable anniversary.
