Hibiki 21 Year Old in Ceramic Decanter is Suntory's 21-year blended Japanese whisky presented in a porcelain ceramic bottle housed in a wooden box — the expression that World Whisky Awards judges described as elegant, sweet, and complex when naming it Best Blended Whisky in the World in 2017, the latest in Hibiki 21's string of consecutive top honors that began in 2009.

Hibiki 21 Year has been one of the most consistently decorated blended whiskies in the world — multiple consecutive World Whisky Awards victories since 2009 represent an unprecedented run at the top of the blended whisky category. The ceramic decanter with wooden box is a collector presentation, with the porcelain bottle and traditional Japanese wooden box adding display quality appropriate to a whisky of this recognition. The blend draws on malt and grain whiskies aged a minimum of 21 years from Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita, with Mizunara Japanese oak as a key maturation component.

Tasting Notes
