Other tours in Japan often pour whisky that is simply imported from Scotland and rebottled. As a dedicated insider working in the industry since 2011, I will show you exactly who makes authentic Japanese whisky right here in Japan and where to hunt down the best bottles during your trip.
My background includes running my own speakeasy and curating a personal collection that once surpassed 5,000 bottles, giving me the experience to guide you through a truly rare lineup you cannot find on a standard menu.
To ensure your journey continues after our tasting, you will also leave with a special parting gift featuring my personal map of the best local whisky spots to visit next.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Entrance is on the 3rd floor, directly in front of the elevator.
What to expect
Foundational tastings from legendary producers like Suntory and Nikka to establish the classic Japanese flavor profile and proper tasting techniques.
Journey into liquid history with rare vintages from the 1960s to 1980s and lost "ghost" distilleries like Karuizawa.
Taste a super-premium, long-aged "Collector's Dram" that provides a once-in-a-lifetime pour unavailable on standard public menus.
Indulge in drams from the modern craft boom, featuring a flight from Ichiro’s Malt and the new wave of third-generation Japanese distillers.
An educational deep-dive to master authenticity, covering how to spot fake export labels, the influence of Mizunara oak and terroir, and the impact of the 2024 whisky laws.
Exclusive parting gifts including my handmade maps and local guides to help you continue your whisky journey in Tokyo.
