The Hibiki 21 Year Old Mount Fuji "Kacho Fugetsu" Limited Edition is a travel-retail release from the House of Suntory, held in a 24-facet decanter decorated with Mount Fuji framed by cherry blossoms and Japanese cranes. Kacho Fugetsu — 花鳥風月, flower, bird, wind, moon — is the classical phrase for the beauty of the natural world, and the decoration is its subject. The whisky inside is the standard Hibiki 21 blend: single malts from Yamazaki and Hakushu married with Chita grain, every component aged at least twenty-one years, and bottled at 86 proof (43% ABV).

Nº 01

The Elemental Distinction

Mount Fuji Decanter Artistry: Features a painted motif depicting Mount Fuji alongside Japanese cranes and cherry blossoms across the 24-faceted bottle.

Travel Retail Exclusive: Released in limited allocations specifically for international airport duty-free channels, making physical acquisition extremely challenging.

Kacho Fugetsu Concept: Named after the Japanese phrase Kacho Fugetsu (花鳥風月), representing the harmony of birds, flowers, wind, and moon across the changing seasons.

Benchmark 21-Year Liquid: Holds the identical ultra-aged Hibiki 21 liquid that carries a twenty-one-year minimum on every component whisky in the blend.

Mizunara Oak Core: Structural framework defined by aged Japanese Mizunara oak, imparting sandalwood, temple incense, and oriental spice notes.

Complete Presentation: Supplied with its commemorative outer box and booklet, both of which carry the Mount Fuji artwork and form part of the edition.

Nº 02

The Kacho Fugetsu Heritage

Commemorative Travel Release

Created as an artistic expression of Japanese nature, the Kacho Fugetsu edition translates centuries of cultural reverie for Mount Fuji onto Hibiki's 24-faceted bottle. By uniting aged stocks from Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita across Mizunara, Sherry, and Bourbon casks, Suntory's master blenders mirror the natural equilibrium depicted on the glass.

Nº 03

Craftsmanship & Cask Maturation

Five Cask Synergy

Mizunara Oak Frame

Japanese Cask Maturation

Provides the irreplaceable sandalwood, temple incense, and oriental spice profile unique to long-matured Japanese oak.

Sherry & Bourbon Wood

Deep Fruit & Velvet Texture

Aged sherry casks impart dark chocolate, fig, and dried apricot richness, balanced by sweet bourbon barrel vanilla.

Malt Foundations

Yamazaki & Hakushu Estates

Combines Yamazaki's opulent, fruity depth with Hakushu's delicate, mountain-filtered herbal clarity.

Grain Harmony

Chita Distillery Grain

Aged grain whisky from Chita acts as the silken thread, binding the complex malts into a velvety, seamless palate.

Nº 04

Sensory Profile & Strategy

Integrated Spectrum

Sensory Profile

Nose: Opulent bouquet of sandalwood, manuka honey, dried apricot, and Mizunara temple incense alongside ripe banana and rich sherry spice.
Palate: Velvety, full-bodied mouthfeel with entry of honey and dark chocolate transitioning into developed sherry spice, sandalwood, and dried fig.
Finish: Very long and resonant, closing with lingering Mizunara sandalwood, soft oak, and multi-minute persistence.

Strategic Position

Suntory's decorated decanters are a category of their own: the whisky is unchanged, the bottle is the release. Set it against the 17-year Kacho Fugetsu with its chrysanthemum and crane motif, which shares the theme but not the vintage, and the Fuji decanter issued in a presentation box on the same shelf at Midnight Whiskey.

Travel Retail Scarcity

Sourced exclusively through select international airport duty-free channels, making pristine, sealed bottles with original outer box and booklet highly sought after on the secondary market.

Decanter Condition

Inspected for label and glass-print integrity, seal security and fill level — on a painted decanter the artwork is part of the condition, and print wear cannot be restored.

Production Methodology

The Hibiki 21 Mount Fuji Kacho Fugetsu Limited Edition combines single malts from Yamazaki and Hakushu with aged grain whiskies from Chita, each matured for at least 21 years across Japanese Mizunara oak, Spanish sherry casks, and American oak barrels. The finished blend is housed in Hibiki's 24-faceted bottle, specially decorated with artwork depicting Mount Fuji to celebrate the harmony of Japanese seasons and natural beauty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the liquid inside the Mount Fuji Edition different from standard Hibiki 21?

No. The whisky inside is the identical 21-year-old blended whisky formulation as standard Hibiki 21. The distinction lies in the collectible decanter artwork, outer box packaging, and travel-retail exclusive distribution.

What does "Kacho Fugetsu" mean?

Kacho Fugetsu (花鳥風月) is a Japanese kanji idiom translating to "Flowers, Birds, Wind, and Moon," representing the beauty of natural scenery and the harmonious cycle of the seasons.

How should this bottle be served?

Enjoy neat in a Glencairn glass at room temperature. A few drops of pure water will lift the Mizunara sandalwood aromatics and dried fruit complexity without disrupting the velvety texture.
