Hibiki Japanese Harmony has a new limited-edition bottle for 2026, created in collaboration with Kyoto kimono house Chiso, founded in 1555 and one of Japan's oldest kimono houses.
The collaboration brings together Hibiki's art of whisky blending with Chiso's long history of yuzen silk dyeing. Hibiki's familiar 24-faceted bottle, representing Japan's 24 traditional micro-seasons, gets a new floral design featuring tachibana, kiri, sakura, ume and tsubaki motifs. The jewel-toned design comes in shades of gold, crimson, emerald, indigo and blush.
Inside the bottle is the Hibiki Japanese Harmony at 43% ABV, with tasting notes that include honey-like sweetness, candied orange peel and white chocolate on the nose, followed by rose, lychee, rosemary and mature woodiness, with sandalwood and Mizunara oak on the finish.
The 2026 Limited Edition, Chiso Collaboration is available in Malaysia from 1 October 2026 at Cellar 18 stores, with a retail price of RM728.
