Hibiki 12 Year Old is one of the most revered expressions in Suntory’s Hibiki lineup. Launched in the early 2000s, it quickly gained popularity for its balance and depth. The blend is composed of malt whiskies from Suntory’s Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries, combined with grain whisky from the Chita distillery, all aged for a minimum of 12 years. What sets Hibiki 12 apart is the incorporation of umeshu (plum liqueur) casks as part of its maturation process, which adds a distinctive layer of sweetness and fruity complexity to the whisky. This rare touch creates a delicate harmony between notes of dried fruits, honey, and a hint of plum.

Description
Despite being discontinued in 2015 due to the growing global demand for Japanese whisky and shortages of aged stock, Hibiki 12 Year Old remains a highly sought-after expression on the secondary market. Its combination of long maturation and unique cask influence makes it a standout in the Hibiki range, cherished for its smooth texture, subtle sweetness, and well-balanced flavors. The discontinuation of the 12-Year-Old has only added to its allure, making it a prized bottle for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
