Hibiki Harmony uses the same foundation whisky as found in the popular Hibiki 17 and 21 year olds but is certainly a great deal kinder to your wallet than those two; this is fitting as Harmony is the entry level to the other Hibiki whisky and a great gateway whisky into Japanese malt in general. It's an extremely versatile dram and can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, blended with water or mixed as a cocktail whilst still retaining harmony of flavour.
If you want to enjoy this Hibiki the traditional Japanese way, called mizuwari, meaning ‘cut with water’ or as a highball cut with sod, then there is a special ritual involved. You add block ice to a highball glass and stir with a bar spoon to chill the glass, then discard any melted water from the glass. Add 1 to 1.5oz of whisky and stir thirteen and one-half times clockwise. Add two to three times as much sparkling water as whisky and then stir three and one half times more clockwise.
