Suntory introduced Hibiki in April 1989, released to celebrate the 90^th Anniversary of the company.  The NAS premium blend at 43% ABV carried a suggested retail price of ¥10,000. Designated as “a masterful blend of specially aged whiskies with a mature full-bodied taste” on the front, the back label further elaborates that the contents are a mix of 30 different whiskies. The unique bottle, with its 24 facets that reflect the hours in the day as well as all the ‘small seasons’ in the year, sported a medallion, a gold cap stopper, all packaged in a luxurious box.  At the turn of the century the nas version phased out in favor of an age-stated 17-year old which itself was discontinued in 2018. This is the second release as it was available between 1991 and 1994, bearing the new Hibiki crest logo but still sold in a grey box.
