“Hibiki” to the Japanese represents harmony, and so the name symbolises this unique marriage of malts and harmonious blend from Japan. The 24 faces of the Hibiki bottle represent the 24 seasons of the age old Japanese calendar and celebrates the ancient tradition of “Sekki” which has been honoured for centuries. The front label is made from “Washi”, hand-crafted Japanese paper.

The Hibiki Harmony Ryusui Hyakka Limited Edition Japanese whisky is created from a carefully selected blend of bourbon-aged malt from Hakushu, sherry casks from Yamazaki and grain whisky from the company’s Chita distillery.
