Toki Japanese Whisky (Suntory)

Make your friend’s first foray into the flavors of Japanese whisky a memorable one by sending them this bottle of the Suntory Toki Japanese Whisky as a gift!

Founded 120 years ago in Osaka, Japan, Suntory now stands as one of the largest beverage conglomerates in the world with several notable brands under their umbrella including the world’s best-selling bourbon, Jim Beam. As a company that prides itself on tradition, however, the brand always allocated much of its focus on its domestic whisky production, constantly putting out both classic and innovative expressions that showcase not only the distinct style of their Japanese whisky but also the skills of their craftspeople.

Among these is the Suntory Toki Japanese Whisky, a blended expression that merges the flavors of their Hakushu, Yamazaki, and Chita distilleries to create a unique expression that embodies the fusion of the modern and traditional. Using Yamazaki malt as a foundation, their master blender carefully marries it with malts from Hakushu and grain whisky from Chita to create a highly-complex yet approachable blend which is then brought to proof with pure water before finally being bottled.

On the nose, this translucent-gold whisky yields an inviting whiff of honey, green tea, soft orchard fruits, peppermint, and basil, paving the way for a scrumptious and full-bodied palate of green grapes, grapefruit, vanilla, shortbread, marshmallow, white chocolate, thyme, malt, oak, and smoke before wrapping up with a toasty finish of vanilla, white pepper, and ginger spice.

Light, versatile, and flavorful, the Suntory Toki Japanese Whisky is the perfect entry-level tipple for those interested in experiencing Japanese whisky as well as fans of light whiskies as a whole. So what are you waiting for? Send a bottle their way as a token of your appreciation and let them enjoy some of the best whisky flavors Japan has to offer all in one delicious expression.
