Witness the convergence of Japanese mastery and contemporary art. Nestor Liquor, your preferred partner for ultra-rare and collectible Japanese whiskies, is honored to present the Hibiki 21 Year Old Hiroshi Senju Limited Edition. This exclusive collaboration unites the "Art of Blending" from the House of Suntory with the "Art of Nature" by world-renowned painter Hiroshi Senju.
Celebrated for his monumental waterfall paintings, Senju created a specific masterpiece for this release titled "Waterfall on Colors 'Hibiki'." The artwork, which adorns both the label and the presentation box, is rendered in ten distinct shades of purple—a nod to the Kokimurasaki gradient, historically symbolizing nobility in Japan. Using traditional Nihonga techniques, Senju painted with natural pigments derived from crushed oyster shells, allowing the flow of water to dictate the image just as nature dictates the aging of whiskey.
Inside the bottle lies the award-winning Hibiki 21 Year Old liquid. A meticulous blend of rare malt whiskies from Yamazaki and Hakushu and grain whiskey from Chita, it is aged for a minimum of 21 years including time in rare Mizunara (Japanese oak) casks.
