Hibiki Blossom Harmony 2023 Japanese Whisky 700ml
At a glance
Suntory's 2023 limited release pairs Hibiki blending with a sakura-cask-finished component. Bottled in a 700ml format at 43% ABV.
Craftsmanship & edition differences
The blend includes mature whiskies and a rare component finished in Japanese cherry-wood casks. Sakura finishing describes part of the blend, not its entire maturation.
The 2023 presentation combines large and small pine-bark diamonds with cherry blossoms and gentian flowers.
Compare the dated label and packaging when choosing an edition. A different release year alone does not establish a different flavour profile.
Producer tasting notes
Paraphrased from Suntory's 2023 release page; these are producer notes, not our own tasting.
- Nose: floral aromas with sakura and osmanthus.
- Palate: rounded, with acacia honey, pear and a delicate sakura-mochi sweetness.
- Finish: long, rich and floral.
