Hibiki 21 Year Old Ceramic Peacock Decanter
Hibiki 21 Year Old Ceramic Peacock Decanter is Suntory's 21-year blended Japanese whisky — named Best Blended Whisky in the World at the World Whisky Awards 2016 — presented in a hand-painted ceramic peacock decanter that represents one of the most distinctive collector presentations in Japanese whisky.
The Hibiki 21 Year draws on malt and grain whiskies aged a minimum of 21 years from Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita, matured across multiple cask types including Mizunara Japanese oak. Twenty-one years of maturation across five cask types produces the elegant complexity that earned the World Whisky Awards recognition: dried fruit, orange peel, strawberry jam, and baked apple on the palate, with the Mizunara's characteristic sandalwood and incense threading through the close. The peacock ceramic decanter — hand-painted with intricate artisan craftsmanship — adds a collector dimension that the standard Hibiki 21 glass bottle doesn't offer. The peacock symbolizes elegance and grace in Japanese aesthetics, an appropriate representation of a whisky at the apex of the standard Hibiki age-stated range.
