Japanese Icons: Harmony & Depth - Tasting Set by The Sundowner Club
Japanese whisky has become a global icon for refinement and craftsmanship. This set brings together legendary age statements and cult favourites, from the balanced depth of Nikka Taketsuru to the sherry-soaked prestige of Yamazaki 18, the harmonious beauty of Hibiki 17, and the innovation of Ichiro’s Malt & Grain. A rare chance to experience the elegance, umami, and artistry that define Japanese whisky at its very best.
Included in the set:
-
Ichiro’s Malt & Grain 46% / 25ml
A modern cult favourite. Ichiro Akuto’s blending genius on display — lively orchard fruit, subtle smoke, and that playful vibrancy that sets it apart from the big names.
-
Hibiki 17 Year Old 43% ABV / 25ml
The poetry of harmony. Floral and honeyed, with notes of plum, sandalwood, and a silky texture that’s become legendary among collectors.
-
Nikka Taketsuru 17 Year Old ABV 43% / 25ml
A masterclass in balance. Malty core with layers of dark fruit, leather, and soft smoke — showcasing Nikka’s house style at peak maturity.
-
Yamazaki 18 Year Old 43% ABV / 25ml
One of the most sought-after age-statement drams in the world. Dense sherry influence, black cherry, incense, and rich oak — the very definition of Japanese elegance.
-
Nikka Taketsuru 21 Year Old 43% ABV / 25ml
The crown jewel of the Taketsuru line. Deep umami, exotic spice, polished oak, and old leather — a dram that embodies the philosophy of Japanese blending at its highest level.
