Toki is a blended whiskey from 3 Japanese Suntory distilleries: Yamazaki, Hakushu and Chita. We got a very round and sweet drink with some fresh citrus and spicy character. Suntory's heritage and excellent distillates meet in this bottle to create a light, timeless whiskey.
"In 1923, Shinjiro Torii envisioned a whisky filled with the essence of Japanese nature and hand-crafted by artisans through a patient process of enhancing the work of nature.
He dreamt of creating subtle, refined, yet complex whisky that would suit the delicate palate of the Japanese and enhance their dining experience. Though initially inspired by traditional Scottish whisky, Torii envisioned a Japanese approach by choosing a terrain and climate completely different from those of Scotland. Torii chose the region of Yamazaki, on the outskirts of Kyoto as the birthplace of Japanese whisky."
"Toki means ""time"" in Japanese.
It's a concept rich in meaning the world over, but particularly in Japan where respect for tradition and reinvention sparks powerful creative energy.
Silky with a subtle sweet and spicy finish.
Clear gold colour. Basil, green apple, and honey on the nose. The notes of grapefruit, green grapes, peppermint, and thyme greet the consumer when tasting."
