+Experience Details
In less than a century, Japan has remarkably established itself as a leading whisky producer. But this recognition has brought its challenges: soaring demand, rising prices, and less availability. Today, whisky fans from around the world may be surprised that labels that were once accessible in Japan are now increasingly rare.
But worry not — your host is here with solutions. Partnering with local whisky professionals, long-standing liquor stores and membership-only bars, he has gotten his hands on some of the country’s most coveted labels for you to enjoy during this whisky tasting in Tokyo's bustling district of Shibuya.
In this experience, sip on 10 varieties of whisky sourced from across Japan served with sweet snacks. Gain in-depth insights into whisky flavors, history and background from your knowledgeable host and whisky expert. By the end of the experience, take a commemorative photo with all the whiskies you’ve tasted and take home a considerable amount of newly-found whisky knowledge as well as a souvenir to remember the experience by.
