Hibiki 17 yr: JAWS Rating 9.1/10

The Whiskey Noob review Hibiki 17 Japanese Whisky

Hibiki 17 Year Old

A Whiskey Review by The Whiskey Noob

 

So far all the Hibikis I’ve tried have been good, not great and to be honest the only one worth it’s price point is the Harmony, but I do have to say this 17 is the best one so far..It’s well-balanced, sweet and not too spicy like the others, which include the 21.  Then again, is it worth its price point?  In secondary markets a bottle might go for over $400+ which means you might find a 1 oz pour of this for well over $50+.  Personally, I’m not willing to spend THAT much on 1 oz, but then again, if you ballin’ out and money ain’t no thang feel free!  And of course invite me to drink with u and buy all my drinks cuz, hey!  What’s money between 2 friends, especially if 1 has an expendable income (you, I’m talking about you) I’ll be here waiting for ur invite!  Thaaaaanks!
