Tokinoka Black (50%)

Tokinoka Black is a Japanese blended whisky bottled at 50% ABV. Master blender Akito Ueda made it from 50% malt whisky and 50% grain whisky, matured in three kinds of cask: bourbon, sherry and new oak. This version has more malt in the blend, and it shows in a notably round mouthfeel. It combines a sharp, spicy, creamy side with a soft, vanilla finish. The nose opens with tropical fruit, followed by woody notes and citrus.
