Description
Japanese whisky no longer needs an introduction. While it was traditionally best known for its sake and shochu, in the present day it also has an impressive whisky industry that’s lauded by spirit afficionados.
Throughout the 2000s, Japan has regularly scooped top prizes at whisky competitions, completely transforming the once-suspect reputation of domestic malts, but the revolution has picked up massive momentum and Tokyo is now considered top of the list to experience world-class malt.
Immerse yourself in Tokyo's colourful culture and bustling nightlife with a private premium whisky tasting. Try new and rare whiskies in different bars scattered around the city guided by an expert connoisseur. Begin at a casual whisky bar and try various Japanese Micro Distillery whiskies. Up the ante and experience rare Japanese whisky thereafter.
The penultimate stop, a visit to the Liquor museum, home to 900 different types of whiskies. End the evening with selection of authentic Japanese foods to try; from tuna sashimi and grilled miso pork, to sautéed asparagus and scallops.
With collection and drop off from your hotel, it's time to shine those shoes and jet off into the world of Japanese whisky – you won't regret it.
