Suntory Hibiki 17 Year Old Japanese Whisky / Gold Crest Label, Bottle Only, No Box, 700ml

This is Suntory’s most popular blend, the Hibiki. Launched in 1989, it contains malt whisky from Yamazaki and Hakushu, and grain from the Chita distillery. The 17 year old was joined in the original lineup by a 21 year old and a non-age statement. The latter both still exist in one form or another, but this expression was discontinued in 2018after unprecedented demand for Japanese whiskies created wholesale stock shortages within even its largest companies.
