Suntory’s Hibiki 17 Year Old has been matured in Japanese Mizunara oak casks. This is a miniature 50ml bottle.
   Nose:   Very fruity from the start, with a medium intensity. Custard cream, soft spices, and a spoonful of honey and mostly fruits. Tropical (mango, pineapple, papaya) and occidental ones (oranges, peach, plums). Slight citrusy notes as well.
   Taste:   A bit of oak, those tropical fruits from the nose, apricot, spices from the Mizunara, and a slight bitterness reminiscent of black cherry. Green apple, orange peel, bananas. Honey and hints of sherry casks.
   Finish:   Long, honey, oak, and lots of fruits, again.
