Togouchi Premium Japanese Blended Whisky 40% ABV, 0.7 litres, in a gift box

Togouchi is produced by Chugoku Jozo, a distillery in the town of Togouchi in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. The distillery is situated within a natural cave system that was originally built as a railway tunnel but was later converted into an ideal environment for maturing whisky. The cool, damp conditions in the tunnels provide an optimal climate for whisky maturation, resulting in a product rich in flavour and character.

As the name suggests, this Togouchi is a blended whisky. This means that it is not made from the distillates of a single distillery, but from those of many different distilleries. The individual distillates are blended together to create a harmonious overall result. The distillates used for the Togouchi Premium Blended Whisky were matured for five years in Spanish oak casks – which is rather short for a whisky – and were finished in ex-sherry casks. Despite its youth, however, this whisky manages to display an appealing richness of nuances.
