Suntory Old Whisky 43% 700ml The Japanese Tradition
| Description: | History,. Though it launched some 30 years prior, Suntory Old began to blow up in the early 1970s with Suntorys (nihonbashi sakusen), roughly translating to Operation Chopsticks. Its a play on words because Suntorys headquarters was at the time in Nihonbashi, Tokyo. Anyway, Chopsticks refers to the companys specific targeting of Japanese izakaya and restaurants when pushing the bottle, as these kinds of venues traditionally only offered sake. If you can instead keep a bottle of whisky at the restaurant, you have a great reason to go back. Tasting Notes,. Nose: Sweet with honey vanilla, sugar-coated oranges, then give it a minute for cherries and candied apple. Palate: Sweet as you may have guessed from the nose. Oak and green apple. Finish: Slight hint of pepper spice right at the end. |
