Suntory is the oldest whisky making company in Japan. Its origins stretch back to a small shop, started in 1899 by Torii Shinjiro, which specialized in selling imported wines. Today, it is the country’s largest and most recognizable producer of quality whisky. Every year, the company released a limited edition of handmade, and hand painted ceramic bottles. This particular Hibiki bottle is for the year 2008 and only 600 bottles were ever released.
