Premium Japanese Whisky OmakaseNew On Viator

Premium Japanese Whisky Omakase

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.

Tokyo Execution Grounds and Forgotten Souls: Dark History of Edo

Already been to Sensoji and Zojoji? Have a love of history?

Once nicknamed the “Temple of Thrown-In Bodies“ for centuries, next was the final resting place for those cast aside by society—from Yoshiwara’s abandoned courtesans to today’s unclaimed dead.

The battleship Mikasa is kept in Mikasa Park, where visitors can see a statue of Heihachiro Togo and other spots that symbolize the era.
