700ml | 43% ABV | Non-Chill Filtered | Natural Color | Limited Edition

A Tribute to Suntory’s Blending Mastery

The Hibiki Master’s Select is a special limited release that honors Suntory’s chief blenders—guardians of harmony, balance, and tradition. Consequently, it showcases rare casks from Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita, curated to express the soul of Hibiki in a unique expression. Moreover, this bottling reflects the artistry behind Japan’s most celebrated blended whisky.

Crafted with Rare Casks and Mizunara Influence

This blend features whiskies matured in a variety of casks, including Mizunara oak—Japan’s prized native wood—which imparts delicate notes of sandalwood, incense, and coconut. In fact, this Hibiki Master’s Select balances aged malt depth with vibrant grain whisky brightness, creating a profile that is both complex and inviting.

Refined, Layered, and Exceptionally Smooth

Bottled at 43% ABV, this expression delivers elegance without compromise. As a result, it layers honey, white peach, and orange marmalade over a foundation of warm spice and soft oak. Additionally, the signature Hibiki silkiness ensures a luxurious mouthfeel from first sip to finish.

Tasting Experience

First, the nose opens with beeswax, yuzu, and dried apricot, followed by cinnamon, clove, and a whisper of sandalwood. Then, subtle floral and vanilla notes emerge with air.

On the palate, the texture is velvety and rich. Flavors of mandarin, toffee, roasted nuts, and Mizunara spice unfold with precision. The alcohol integrates seamlessly, enhancing rather than dominating.

Finally, the finish is long and contemplative—green tea, almond, and a hint of incense. Altogether, it’s a harmonious and memorable dram that captures the essence of this Hibiki Master’s Select.

A Coveted Limited Release

Originally released in limited quantities for select markets, this bottling is now highly sought after by collectors. Therefore, it represents both a tasting experience and a piece of Suntory’s modern legacy. Bottles are increasingly rare, making the Hibiki Master’s Select a prized addition to any collection.
