The Toki whisky Silence Please event took over a hi-fi listening café in Lower Manhattan to deliver a vivid izakaya-inspired night, blending music, food, and whisky rituals. Guests were immersed in a taste of Tokyo’s after‑work culture with savory skewers, craft highballs, and vinyl DJ sets. Attendees collected custom-designed passport cards, stamping them at stalls offering bites, cocktails, and music, creating an interactive experience steeped in Japanese bar tradition.

The setting evoked Tokyo’s famed food stalls and listening bars, with warm lighting, communal tables, and ambient vinyl playing in the background. Savory snacks like yakitori and tamago sandwiches paired perfectly with Suntory Toki highballs—light, refreshing, and balanced with citrus and herbal notes. With crate-digging beats and thoughtful ritual, the event offered modern whisky fans a cross-cultural evening where taste, sound, and ceremony intersected beautifully.
