A blended whisky from The House of Suntory's three distilleries: Yamazaki, Hakushu and Chita. Toki has a different composition to another Suntory blend, Hibiki, as its main components are Hakashu single malt and Chita grain whisky. It should work really well in a highball.
Fun fact: 'Toki' means 'time' in Japanese.
Soft orchard fruits and thyme honey are joined by a helping of peppermint in the backdrop.
More green apple on the palate leads along bright citrus notes from pink grapefruit. Bitter herbs, toasted almonds and vanilla oak linger underneath.
White pepper and ginger add spice to the finish.
This is a nice tasting whiskey. Not too over powering and doesn't burn as a scotch whiskey can. Bottle is a great shape. Smooth, nicely scented and great on the rocks. Will buy again.
Normally I think whisky is scotch but this could change my mind. A smooth taste at a good price definitely worth a try
Such a smooth beautiful whiskey
A really well rounded flavour, full of caramel and vanilla.A very tasty blended whisky that manages to balance flavours perfectly
I normally go for peaty single malts, which I drink neat. This was a real eye-opener. It's extraordinarily smooth (some might say that it lacks complexity?) but I love it, and it's great value. Have had copious glasses neat, and (possibly sacrilege) as a base for awesome whisky sours.
