A Testament to Mastery and Innovation

The Hibiki Aged 40 Years

Are you ready to explore the next chapter in the Hibiki journey?

A rare chance to own something remarkable 

The House of Suntory is proud to unveil Hibiki Aged 40 Years, an extraordinary and highly anticipated expression of Japanese whisky mastery. This ultra-limited release brings together some of the rarest spirits from Suntory’s world-renowned distilleries—Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita—all matured for over 40 years.

Hibiki Aged 40 Years is not merely about age—it is about an evolution of taste, defying the traditional expectations of rich intensity and opulence. With over four decades of refinement, this exquisite whisky reveals a deeper sense of aliveness, where elegance and balance take center stage.

“At the House of Suntory Whisky, we are never just about protecting our heritage and lineage, challenging conventions and embracing innovation, is what drives us.” - Shinji Fukuyo, master blender

The blend embodies the signature "Blossoming Harmony" of Hibiki, further enhanced by the nuanced complexity of Mizunara Japanese oak, the soft sweetness of Spanish oak, and the smooth depth from aged American oak casks. Each sip unfolds like an orchestra, where every note is in perfect synchrony, inviting the senses on a journey through time.


Hibiki Aged 40 Years represents the next chapter for the Hibiki brand, carrying forward its legacy of craftsmanship while embracing a new era of whisky innovation. This release, available only in extremely limited quantities, offers an unparalleled experience for a select few—those who truly appreciate the artistry and legacy of Japanese whisky.
