100th Anniversary Blend. Special Edition. Japan Release. Hibiki — a commemorative limited edition blend celebrating Suntory's 100th anniversary, produced for the Japanese domestic market and presenting a specially configured blend that honors a century of Suntory whisky production.
Suntory was founded in 1899 by Shinjiro Torii, making the 100th anniversary 1999. The centennial blend draws on the full depth of Suntory's whisky inventory — Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita distillery stocks — in a commemorative configuration that the standard annual Hibiki program does not replicate. Japan-domestic releases of anniversary expressions rarely enter international retail, making the Japan Release designation a significant collector provenance marker.
