Taking excellence in whisky packaging to new heights is this special edition Hibiki “Mount Fuji” released by Suntory. The bottle features 24 facets representing the 24 seasons of the Japanese lunar calendar set against a painting of Mount Fuji at sunset. Created in 1989, demand for the Hibiki blends increased after the brand's appearance in the movie “Lost in Translation”. Limited to 2000 bottles and scheduled for release only in Japan, the sheer understated beauty of the bottle almost resists opening. No doubt, most will be destined to become bar trophies. A shame given that the 21 year old is considered by many experts to be the peak expression in the range. Jim Murray enthused about it in his 2015 Bible, commenting, “…it's hard to raise the bar much higher than this. Stunning.”

Nose: Sweet, caramalized 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.
