After the cocktail and some much-enjoyed mingling, I took my seat at the tasting tables to hear speeches from the Suntory brand manager for the UK as well as the man himself: Chief Blender Shinji Fukuyo.

Go to shop DELIVERY WINE CO - UK.

These represent both great value for money as compared to the astronomical prices that Japanese whiskies are going for now. It screams premium and it looks like there’s something luxurious inside.

Hibiki 17 is currently my favorite shelf drink. Anyway, on with the Hibiki Harmony review. Many people do not know this.

Nose: Sweetness. The is surprisingly tough to explain in words but it was immersive, interesting, and most importantly fun. Most must be right.

Hibiki Japanese Harmony seems to genuinely intrigue Mr. Fukuyo, it was the first time he had used younger than 12 Year Old whisky, we were told, but he needed to “to sustain development and volumes” going forward and to protect the future. I would just say, keep cool – it is just Hibiki 17. We would also suggest an inherently fruity scotch whisky that was second-fill sherry butt matured, perhaps a Tomatin or a Glen Keith.

The modern spirit of the new Macallan distillery, Concha y Toro puts forth two new limited edition Marques De Casa Concha wines. My mission is to experience, share and inspire with everything great about whisky, whiskey, gin, beer and fine dining through my writing, my brand building and my whisky tastings. Hibiki Whisky is not only Japan’s most highly awarded blended whisky, but among the most prestigious and honoured whiskies in the world. It has gone on to win the most awards for any range in the Suntory portfolio.

To represent the 24 seasons in Japan. However it’s important to note that all whiskies are different; some less so than others, so it’s hard to find a like-for-like replacement. Remember when Yamazaki 18 was actually S$400? Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email.

So I really want to try the Hibiki 12 but can't find it and was wondering how the NAS compares?

This is what they had to say…. I regret not picking up a bottle now.

Hibiki was launched in 1989 to commemorate Suntory’s 90th anniversary, and has ever since been embraced as the paragon of The Art of Japanese Whisky, the very product of Japanese nature and her people. The launch was set in an art gallery in amongst the buzz of bustling Soho, Central London with bespoke bamboo table and chairs made especially for the event. It will be a fun time, and you will increase your whisky knowledge.

We then went to an ice ball demonstration which was fascinating, although I think I will be buying a mould for home mostly due to the time it takes to make one! Being able to meet and speak with the man was a very special part of this experience and what I believe makes this Hibiki Japanese Harmony review a gem.
