Suntory Toki

Just an easy drinker. Rich and fruity.. lighter in body but full flavor. This will be a regular in my collection.

Hard to give this 5/5 based on each of my friends unknowingly suggesting the same thing upon my brag of the purchase of Suntory Toki: "Oh, man. You gotta try Hibiki." So the consensus is that Hibiki is the top notch, but Suntory Toki was my first Japanese whisky, as it is for many given it is perhaps the cheapest. I loved it. I could chug it, gargle it, savor it. There are various notes on the fruit side, but predominantly pear and macintosh apple (do not expect granny smith on this, there is nothing sour about it) mixed with a smoky, woody flavor, but said smoke & wood flavors are merely accents to the fruity, botanical ones. If you are searching for a new whisky around $40, do not settle for the same old- try Suntory Toki. This bottle is addicting in the best way.

Almost like a scotch west highland. 6th try. Gosling
