About Hibiki – Japan’s Most Celebrated Whiskey Brand
Hibiki Whiskey is part of the prestigious Suntory portfolio, one of the most respected Japanese whiskey brands. Since its launch in 1989, the Hibiki line has set a global benchmark for excellence, blending malt and grain whiskies from Suntory’s Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita distilleries.
The word “Hibiki” translates to “resonance” in Japanese—a fitting name for a whiskey that resonates with flavor, tradition, and artistry. Over the years, expressions like the Hibiki Harmony Whiskey and Hibiki 21 Year Old have won numerous international awards, cementing Hibiki’s position among the best Japanese whiskey labels in the world.
The Legend of 17 Year Old Hibiki
First released in the early 1990s, Hibiki-17 Year Old Japanese Whiskey quickly earned a cult following for its graceful profile and refined character. Matured for a minimum of 17 years, this expression captures the essence of Japanese blending philosophy—balance, precision, and harmony.
Sadly, due to limited supply and increasing global demand, Hibiki 17 has been discontinued since 2018, making it a rare Japanese hibiki whiskey sought after by enthusiasts and collectors alike. At Rare Finds Liquor Store, we specialize in sourcing rare and collectible spirits, including the highly coveted Hibiki-17.
