Hibiki 21 Year Old 100th Anniversary Edition

Hibiki 21 Year Old 100th Anniversary Edition is a rare limited-edition Japanese blended whisky created to celebrate 100 years of Suntory Whisky. Elegant, collectible and deeply symbolic, this special release honours the House of Suntory’s century-long whisky heritage through both its refined liquid and its commemorative bottle design.

At the heart of this edition is Hibiki 21 Year Old, one of Japan’s most respected blended whiskies. It is crafted from a careful harmony of mature malt and grain whiskies, creating the balanced, layered and aromatic style that Hibiki is known for. The official House of Suntory describes the expression as a delicate balance of several malt and grain whiskies, carefully crafted to create a full orchestra of flavours and aromas in celebration of Suntory Whisky’s 100th anniversary.

The 100th Anniversary Edition also carries strong collector appeal. Its limited-edition centennial label uses a delicate colour gradient inspired by the sunrise in Japan, symbolising a new beginning while honouring Suntory’s whisky-making history. Whisky references also note that the blend includes whisky matured in Mizunara oak, contributing refined Japanese wood, spice and incense-like depth.

On the nose, Hibiki 21 Year Old 100th Anniversary Edition opens with refined kumquat, jasmine and soothing Japanese incense. The palate is subtly sweet and floral, gradually revealing spiced Japanese sandalwood and agarwood. The finish is long, deep and elegant, with lingering Mizunara woodiness and graceful spice.
