This bottling of a Togouchi Premium is a blended whisky of 8-year-old malt from Scotland and grain whisky from Canada, which is married in Japan and then matured for a further 5 years in ex-sherry casks.
Togouchi is a brand of the Chugoku Jozo Distillery Co. Ltd. from near Hiroshima, Japan, which has also been producing blended whisky since around 1990 (alongside sake, shochu, hon-mirin and chu-hai).
The whisky from Japan is like its makers. At first glance, reserved, respectful and polite. On closer inspection, however, enormously profound and multi-layered. Japanese whisky is the result of perfected craftsmanship. Many whiskies from Japan carry exotic fruity aromas and a floral bouquet in front of them.
