Hibiki 21 years old - Suntory - 70cl

Hibiki 21 Year Old
Hibiki 21 has been named the World's Best Blended Whisky countless times at the World Whiskies Awards among many accolades, and for good reason! During that time, demand for Japanese whisky such as this has gone through the roof as a global audience has become aware of the quality that's long been produced there. Dr. Whisky says it's "Unbelievably balanced, and dangerously drinkable". So basically, it's pretty good stuff!

Nose
Sweet, caramalised nuts, some lemon acidity, blackcurrants and pears with vanilla, dark toffee and rich sherry spice.
Palate
Oak, dark cherry and sweet caramel notes, buttery with a wisp of smoke and some wood spice.
Finish
Long, with a hint of smoke.
Overall
A fantastic Japanese whisky.
