White Oak Tokinoka 40% 500ml is an exquisite Japanese blended whisky hailing from the esteemed Eigashima Shuzo distillery, renowned for its long history dating back to 1679 as one of Japan's oldest sake producers. Located in Akashi, near Kobe, White Oak distillery was the first in Japan to obtain a whisky-making license in 1919, predating the famous Yamazaki distillery by four years. The name Tokinoka, meaning 'fragrance of time' in Japanese, reflects the meticulous craftsmanship and masterful blending that characterizes this whisky. The whisky opens with delicate layers of white chocolate and floral notes accompanied by hints of maple syrup, green apples, and a spicy touch of pink peppercorn. On the nose, you are greeted with a bouquet of vanilla, honey, sweet spices, cinnamon, and oak. The palate is rich and complex, revealing flavors of white pepper, honey, apple, marmalade, and ripe fruits. The finish is long and sweet, leaving lingering notes of honey, oak, and vanilla. Overall, White Oak Tokinoka offers a harmonious blend of sweet and spicy profiles, showcasing a delicate texture and impeccable balance that perfectly encapsulates Japanese precision and artistry in whisky making.
