Released on 1 October 2026, this edition celebrates traditional Japanese craftsmanship through a newly designed bottle and presentation carton.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe collaboration brings together Hibiki's whisky-making heritage with Chiso's centuries-old expertise in kimono artistry. Known for its traditional Kyo-Yuzen techniques, Chiso has created an interpretation of Japanese floral motifs that reflects the relationship between nature, the seasons and traditional craftsmanship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe artwork wraps around Hibiki's distinctive 24-faceted bottle, which represents the 24 seasons of the traditional Japanese calendar. The design incorporates sakura (cherry blossom), ume (plum blossom), tsubaki (camellia), tachibana (evergreen Japanese citrus) and kiri (paulownia). Each carries a traditional meaning associated with renewal, longevity, resilience, prosperity or good fortune.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2026 collaboration retains the established Hibiki Japanese Harmony whisky, with the limited-edition distinction coming from its illustrated bottle and matching gift carton rather than a change to the blend. The release forms part of Suntory's wider celebration of Japanese artistry and the connection between traditional craft and contemporary design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Note by Suntory:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rose, lychee, hint of rosemary, mature woodiness, sandalwood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Honey like sweetness, candied orange peel, white chocolate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Subtle, tender long finish, with hint of Mizunara (Japanese oak).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hibiki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56395120705921,"sku":"HJHCCLE2026","price":124.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0413\/8634\/4603\/files\/HibikiJapaneseHarmonyChisoLTO.jpg?v=1791969564","url":"https:\/\/jpha.co.uk\/products\/hibiki-japanese-harmony-chiso-collaboration-limited-edition-2026","provider":"JPHA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
