I invite you to deepen your whisky knowledge with The Whiskey Trilogy: https://deltonmendenhall.shop/
I take you through five levels of Japanese whisky, from a refreshing Toki highball to rare old bottles that collectors hunt. Along the way, I show what each step adds—and why the final level changes what you are choosing altogether.
I start with the right way to approach Toki, explore Japanese blend styles and distillery house styles, and explain what age really adds to a whisky. I also look at why a lighter whisky can seem thin on its own yet shine in a highball, how familiar Japanese brands may contain whisky from elsewhere, and where I think you might want to stop on your own journey.
