Tasting notes for Suntory Hibiki 21YO 43%abv
Nose: An extremely rich bouquet; Seville oranges, bananas, liquorice, Egyptian dates, polished leather, oak, apricot conserve, brandy snaps, nutmeg, vanilla slice, cigar leaf, orange coffee.
Palate: Smooth and creamy to start; then a big dollop of sweet spices, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, liquorice. More of the Seville oranges plus white plums, lychees, honeydew melon, nougat, praline, leather and sweet cigar leaf. Complex, oily, mouth coating and full bodied.
Finish: Long, with liquorice, cantaloupe, cigar leaf, vanilla, nougat, butter, peanut brittle and well-judged oak. The oiliness clings to the palate. After some time, a fine envelope of smoke appears.
Last Word: A truly sophisticated, beautifully crafted world class blend. A blend that I could not recommend more highly if you have the means.
