Suntory Whisky Toki

Suntory Whisky Toki is a blended Japanese whisky that perfectly encapsulates the elegance and precision that Japanese whisky is famous for. Produced by House of Suntory — one of Japan’s oldest and most celebrated whisky producers — Toki (meaning “time” in Japanese) is a carefully crafted blend using whisky from three of Suntory’s distilleries: Hakushu, Yamazaki, and Chita.

At 43% ABV, Toki is approachable without being watered down. The nose is fresh and floral — green apple, cucumber, and a hint of basil and honey. On the palate it’s wonderfully smooth and delicate, with green apple, white pepper, and a silky sweetness that gives way to a clean, refreshing finish with subtle vanilla and just a touch of spice.

Toki is designed to be versatile. It works beautifully neat, over ice, or — as Suntory recommends — in a Japanese highball with chilled sparkling water and a twist of lemon. It’s one of the most accessible Japanese whiskies available in the UK and a brilliant entry point to the category. Whether you’re new to Japanese whisky or a seasoned fan, Toki is a bottle worth having on the shelf.
