Description
The Suntory Hibiki Japanese Harmony Master’s Select Limited Edition is a strictly limited special bottling from Suntory’s renowned Hibiki series and is aimed particularly at collectors and lovers of Japanese whisky art. Like the regular Master’s Select, this edition is also based on a blend of selected malt and grain whiskies from the Yamazaki, Hakushu and Chita distilleries. Matured in a combination of American white oak, European oak and the rare Mizunara oak, it displays the characteristic harmonious taste profile with fine fruit, honey and sherry notes that characterize the Master’s Select range.
The striking difference to the regular Master’s Select Edition lies not in the taste, but in the elaborate bottle design: the Limited Edition bears artistic Japanese motifs such as sakura blossoms, goshoguruma (royal carriage) and ryusuimon (flowing water). These symbols traditionally stand for prosperity, happiness and harmony and were handed down as gifts to shoguns. In combination with the elegant gift box, this bottling becomes an exclusive collector’s item which, in addition to its enjoyment, also has a high visual and cultural value.
Thanks to its limited availability, the Hibiki Master’s Select Limited Edition is coveted worldwide and is often listed as a highlight in premium collections. It combines Japanese craftsmanship, aesthetics and whisky perfection in a single presentation.
This limited edition is ideal for pure enjoyment to fully appreciate the fine aromas. It harmonizes particularly well with fine Japanese cuisine such as sashimi or grilled wagyu, but also goes well with fine desserts such as dark chocolate or matcha cream. Its artistic design also makes it a prestigious gift and a special gem in any high-quality home bar or collection.
