Sometimes, giving gifts to people who almost have it all is very difficult because, for my case, I tend to run out of ideas on what to give them. Though they have always been very gracious, and appreciative, of course, you still want to give them a gift that they will love. Once, I was able to give my friend a Hibiki whiskey. It is a Japanese whiskey.
That friend of mine was about to have his birthday, and as a close friend, and business partner, I have to give a good gift. I have known him long enough, but that does not help anything because all these time that we have been close friends, and eventually business partner, he has always been a simple person. If he may have any hobby, I am sure he already has the necessary stuff to be owned about that activity. I have been searching about what gift to give him when I remembered that we used to be old drinking buddies as well. That was when I decided to give him a more unique whiskey.
I have known that Japanese whiskeys are one of the most unique whiskeys. I have not tasted Japanese whiskey, maybe partly the reason why I am hyped for this gift. Fine liquors are amusing gifts to give, are they not? They are like a gift from you, to you.
Anyway, I searched about Japanese whiskeys, and apparently, the best one that I could give is one of the Japanese whiskeys from the House of Suntory, a distillery based in Japan. Apparently, Japanese whiskeys from the House of Suntory have been granted many awards by many whiskeys, and liquor connoisseurs not just from Japan, but also from all over the world.
One of the great whiskeys from the House of Suntory is this whiskey called Hibiki whiskey. Apparently, Hibiki Japanese whiskey is a paragon of Japanese whiskey. Japanese whiskeys were said to be one of the best because of the special way they are blended, and concocted. There are special ways about how Japanese whiskeys are tasted because it makes you feel relaxed with the tranquility from relaxing with nature. It makes sense because the Japanese people are known to have high sensibilities with nature.
The dilemma that was left is to where to get it because they are known to be quite rare. Thankfully, I was able to find this liquor store online, based just here in Singapore. The store is called is Platinum Wines & Spirits. They also offer delivery – and fast! They have a wide variety of liquors, not just Hibiki whiskey, and Japanese whiskeys.
When I gave my gift to my friend, he really enjoyed it, and opened it immediately for us to try. While some people winced a bit upon seeing the view because apparently, Japanese whiskeys are usually a collector’s item, he does not really care, and just wants to have fun.
I was really thankful for this online liquor store that delivered my friend’s Hibiki whiskey. Next time, I would buy from them again.
