Suntory Toki --- Whisky Review Time
Founded in 1899, Suntory was originally a small store in Osaka which sold imported wines. Over the next century that small store grew into a powerful multi-national corporation. Suntory specializes primarily in alcoholic beverages such as beer, wine, and spirits as well as some soft drinks. Recognize these famous brands of liquor; Jim Beam, Makers Mark, Knob Creek, Courvoisier, Cruzan, Lamphroaig, Pinnacle, Old Crow, Canadian Club, Skinny Girl. Well, they are all owned by Suntory.
In 1923 Suntory opened it's first distillery and began making whisky. Japanese whisky grew in popularity as American GI's brought it back home with them after serving in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. By the 1970's Suntory was rapidly expanding and began heavily marketing overseas. They even hired Sammy Davis Jr. to do commercials.

Suntory Toki is their most common overseas product. A blended whisky created from malted barley, it is produced from the Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita distilleries, aged at lest three years in American oak barrels, and then blended into one product. I think I bought this for around $30, in Japan I bet it's much cheaper.
Drinking from a glencairn, the whisky gives off a sweet aroma. Very very light, to the point where it almost doesn't smell like whisky at all. It smells more like a dry white wine, like a pino blanc, chardonnay, or riesling. Is this really whisky? With it's very light color it almost looks like a white wine. After tasting I can confirm that it is indeed a whisky. It has tasting notes of honey, green apple, green grape, and a bit of vanilla. It finishes with a very dry oakiness, and leaves a dry taste in your mouth that quickly goes away, the aftertaste does not hang in the mouth long like other whiskies. The flavors of this whisky are very light and subtle, for me perhaps too subtle.
To me this is a good whisky, not great, just good. It could be better. If it had a little bit more body to it and a bit more flavor, I would rate this higher. As it stands I rate it 3.2 out of 5 stars. I might buy a bottle every once in a blue moon, particular if it is on sale. I will drink it if it is put in front of me. But I probably would rather drink something else. Now I must come forward and admit a big bias, I'm a bourbon and rye drinker, whiskies which tend to have much bolder and richer flavors. So perhaps this whisky doesn't fit my palate. I could see someone who enjoys dry white wines likewise enjoying this. Perhaps Scotch drinkers who enjoy the non-peated Scotches would like this. But it's just not for me.

Bourbon of choice?
MAN, ok, stupid long winded answer ahead.
For my 21st birthday I did the American Whiskey Trail. At the Maker’s Mark distillery, they fully TELL YOU, “hey we overcharge for our bourbon because the red wax seal tricks your brain into thinking it’s prestige bourbon,” and even though they tell you that TO YOUR FACE, my brain still goes “hehe red wax seal fancy”
In college I developed a fondness for Old Crow because it was, uh. Ten dollars. But it’s way better than the price tag would have you believe! I use it to mix a lot because it has a nice, sort of blank flavor that mixes well.
My day to day is Jim Beam. Good taste without being too overpowering, mixes well and stands on its own.
Today I’m drinking from a local distillery! It’s called Bluebird, and it’s got a strong, unique taste. I’m a fan

Whether you're a seasoned whiskey connoisseur or a curious novice, join us as we dive into the world of Jim Beam Vs Evan Williams. Key Takeaways: Jim Beam and Evan Williams are two popular American bourbons with unique characteristics and flavors. JIm Beam has a rich history dating back to the late 1700s, while Evan Williams was founded in the mid-20th century. Both brands use similar methods to produce their bourbons, including sourcing ingredients, fermentation, distillation, aging, and bottling. Jim Beam is known for its mellow flavor profile, while Evan Williams boasts a bolder taste. When it comes to price range and availability, both brands offer a range of options to suit all budgets and tastes. There are countless cocktail recipes that feature both Jim Beam and Evan Williams bourbons, making them versatile options for mixing drinks. Both brands have received numerous awards and recognition for their high-quality bourbons. Consumer preferences and reviews are subjective, but both Jim Beam and Evan Williams have a strong following among whiskey enthusiasts. When it comes to market share, Jim Beam is the clear leader, but Evan Williams continues to gain popularity. Both Jim Beam and Evan Williams have a strong social media presence, engaging with consumers and sharing content about their brands. History of Jim Beam Jim Beam is a renowned American bourbon brand with a fascinating history that dates back over 220 years. The story begins in 1795 when Jacob Beam, a German immigrant, started producing whiskey in the hills of Kentucky. It wasn't until his son, David Beam, took over the family business in the early 19th century that the Beam name became synonymous with premium quality whiskey. David Beam is credited with the introduction of the "Old Jake Beam Sour Mash" recipe, which served as the foundation for the Jim Beam bourbon we know today. The recipe has been passed down through seven generations of the Beam family, with each new distiller adding their unique touch to refine the flavor and production process. Fast forward to the 20th century, and Jim Beam had firmly established itself as one of the top bourbon brands in the United States. They continued to innovate, introducing new variations like their flavored bourbon collection and expanding their global market presence. In 2014, Jim Beam was acquired by Suntory Holdings, a Japanese beverage company, but the brand remains true to its American roots and commitment to producing exceptional whiskey. History of Evan Williams Evan Williams bourbon, one of the most popular American whiskey brands, has a rich history dating back to the late 18th century. It is named after its founder, Evan Williams, who moved to Kentucky from Wales in the 1780s. Williams was a farmer and a distiller who recognized the potential of bourbon and started producing it for commercial sale. The first Evan Williams distillery was established in 1783 in Louisville, Kentucky. Williams' bourbon quickly gained popularity and earned a reputation for its smooth taste and quality. However, the distillery was destroyed in a fire in 1816, and Williams died shortly thereafter. His legacy was continued by his family, who opened a new distillery in the 1850s and continued producing Evan Williams bourbon. Evan Williams bourbon has gone through several changes over the years, including a change of ownership in the 1940s and a modernization of its production process in the 1990s. However, it has maintained its commitment to producing high-quality bourbon that honors the legacy of its founder. Today,
Evan Williams is owned by Heaven Hill Brands, one of the largest independent spirits producers in the United States. Production Process of Jim Beam Jim Beam bourbon is made using a traditional bourbon making process that has remained relatively unchanged for over 200 years. Here is an overview of the production process: Step Description Sourcing of Ingredients Jim Beam uses a specific strain of yeast, along with corn, rye, and malted barley to create their bourbon mash. Fermentation The bourbon mash is mixed with water and yeast, and fermented for several days to create a "beer" like liquid. Distillation The fermented liquid is double distilled in copper stills to create a clear, high-proof distillate. Aging The clear distillate is then aged in charred white oak barrels for a minimum of four years. The barrels are stored in large, multi-story warehouses known as rickhouses. Bottling The aged bourbon is then bottled, with some varieties being bottled at a higher proof than others. Jim Beam also uses a unique "floating rickhouse" method, where barrels are stored on barges on the Kentucky River, allowing the bourbon to age differently due to the fluctuating temperatures of the water. Overall, the production process of Jim Beam bourbon is known for its consistency and adherence to traditional methods. Production Process of Evan Williams Similar to Jim Beam, Evan Williams uses a traditional process to make its bourbon, resulting in a unique flavor profile that sets it apart from other American whiskeys. The production process starts with the sourcing of high-quality corn, barley, and rye, which are then ground and mixed with water to create a mash. Yeast is added to the mash to initiate the fermentation process, which converts the sugars into alcohol. The fermented mash is then distilled in copper pot stills, which produces a clear liquid known as white dog. This liquid is then aged in charred oak barrels for a minimum of four years, during which time it takes on a deep amber color and absorbs flavors from the wood. The final step is bottling, during which the bourbon is blended with other barrels to ensure consistency and quality. The result is a rich, smooth, and slightly spicy bourbon with caramel and vanilla notes that make it a popular choice among whiskey enthusiasts. Flavor Profile of Jim Beam Jim Beam is known for its smooth and sweet taste. It has a distinct caramel and vanilla aroma with subtle notes of oak and spice. When sipping it neat, the initial taste is honey and corn with a mild smokiness. As it coats the tongue, the flavors of caramel and vanilla become more prominent, leading to a warm and gentle finish. For those who prefer mixed drinks, Jim Beam works well in classic cocktails such as the Old Fashioned and Manhattan. Its sweetness also complements citrus-based cocktails like the Whiskey Sour and Lemon Drop.   Jim Beam Distiller's Masterpiece The Jim Beam Distiller's Masterpiece is a premium version of the classic bourbon. It is aged for at least 10 years in charred oak barrels, which gives it a more complex flavor profile. The aroma is a blend of vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon, while the taste includes hints of caramel, toasted oak, and dark fruit. Its smooth finish makes it a perfect sipping bourbon. Appearance Aroma Taste Finish Deep amber Vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon Caramel, toasted oak, dark fruit Long and smooth If you are a fan of sweeter bourbons with a smooth finish, Jim Beam is an excellent choice. Its versatility as both a sipping and mixing bourbon makes it a popular choice among whiskey enthusiasts. Flavor Profile of Evan Williams Evan Williams bourbon has a rich and complex flavor profile with a smooth, mellow finish. Its aroma is characterized by notes of vanilla and caramel, with a hint of charred oak. On the palate, Evan Williams delivers a rich and full-bodied taste of caramel and toasted oak, with a subtle sweet
ness. It has a smooth and silky texture, with a long and warm finish that lingers on the tongue. Its unique flavor profile makes it an excellent sipping bourbon, but it also works well in mixed drinks. Its robust flavor can stand up well to other ingredients, making it a great choice for classic cocktails like the Old Fashioned or Manhattan. Price Range and Availability When it comes to price, Jim Beam and Evan Williams both offer affordable options for bourbon lovers. A standard 750ml bottle of Jim Beam White Label ranges from $15 to $25, while Evan Williams Black Label can be found between $12 to $18. For those looking for a higher-end experience, Jim Beam offers its Small Batch Collection, which includes its Knob Creek, Basil Hayden's, Booker's, and Baker's bourbons. These range from $30 to $80 per bottle. Meanwhile, Evan Williams has its own higher-end line, the Single Barrel Collection, which features its award-winning vintage-dated bourbons for $30 to $40 per bottle. In terms of availability, both Jim Beam and Evan Williams can be found in most liquor stores and supermarkets throughout the United States. However, Jim Beam is the more widely distributed brand, with a larger global presence.

Fred Noe, Beam Family 7th Generation Master Distiller has this to say about their latest expression: “This batch pays homage to the early days of my dad Booker Noe’s career – far before he was the Sixth Generation Master Distiller – when he first learned the art of making bourbon under the guidance of his cousin Carl Beam. When Booker started working at the Jim Beam Distillery in Clermont in…

My Problem With Small Craft Distilleries That Make Bourbon
Today I did a tasting at the Wigle Whiskey distillery in Pittsburgh, PA. They make rye and bourbon. The rye was pretty good and I enjoyed it. But the bourbon was like, fine. It was decent bourbon but it just didn't really stand out. They had a bourbon made from red corn which is rare, but it was good. Not really the rich bold flavors I seek when it comes to bourbon Their straight bourbon had quite a bit of burn to it and seemed unrefined.
The waiter who served us asked us what our favorite was, and of course I picked the single cask rye. He asked us for other opinions, and I had to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth about small craft distilleries that make bourbon. Often times they make a bourbon that is mediocre. They don't realize that their main competition are Kentucky distillers who have been making bourbon for over 200 years. That would be fine if the price is right, but a bottle of Wigle Whiskey straight bourbon costs $55 a bottle. I explained that I can get a lot of great Kentucky bourbons for that price or less that just blows Wigle out of the water. Think of all common brands out there that you can find on the shelf of every liquor store, bourbons like Woodford Reserve, 1792, Buffalo Trace, Elijah Craig, Willet, Lexington, Makers 46, all the specialty batches made by Jim Beam and Wild Turkey, even common brands like Knob Creek, Makers Mark, and Bulleit. I'd even argue a bargain brand like Evan Williams Black Label is probably better. The waiter disagreed and said their bourbon was just as good as any Kentucky bourbon. I think he's delusional.
