Description

The Arita and Kutani ceramic decanters were an annual limited release from Suntory, bottled between 2001 and 2014. Each one contains their exceptional Hibiki 21-year-old blend. Arita and Kutani are the pre-eminent ceramic houses in Japan, both located on the island of Kyushu. Each year, both houses design a decanter each, and they are all hand-painted. This blend consists of over ten malts and grains, featuring whiskies from Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita, aged in five types of cask. The bottle famously has 24 facets representing the 24 seasons of the Japanese lunar calendar.
