Hibiki Blender’s Choice 700ml

Hibiki is a blended whisky brand from Suntory comprised of grain whisky from their Chita distillery and malt whisky from their Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries. It will include wine-cask aged whiskies and bares no-age statement.

Nose: Thick vanilla pudding, ripe dates, and plenty of dry woodiness. Pineapple and peach cobbler later on.

Palate: Definitely a hearty oak base here, yet it manages to simultaneously remain quite light on the tongue. Sweet wine starts to peek through along with a bit of vanilla towards the end.

Finish: A young, tingling spiciness takes us through more of that forest, but mizunara obviously has another appointment, since it all drops off a tad too quickly if you ask me. Very dry and leaves me reaching for my chaser.
