Not many people would associate Japan with world class whiskey but that's exactly what you'll find in the small town of Yoichi. The Nikka Whiskey Distillery offers tours, tastings and a brilliant insight into the history of whiskey making in Japan.

As a Japanese grew up there, Nikka whisky sounds very cheap to me. In fact, I didn't know they were stil in the business. Then again, I don't drink whisky and have no knowledge of it.

It was quite a surprise it got the recognition.from the people who know what they are talking about.

I haven't been at the Nikka distillery so far. But I visited the Yamazki distillery. It was very interesting.

By the way the Yamazaki distillery was founded 1923 by Shinjiro Toori, which makes it the first whisky distillery in Japan and not Nikka.

But thanks for the video.
