SUNTORY
” I want to make world-class whisky by Japanese own hands. Suntory*’s founder, Shinjiro Torii,who started whisky production.
*(Suntory was called “Kotobukiya” at that time)
He began the construction of a malt whisky distillery in 1923 and the first authentic whisky “Shiro Fuda” in Japan, was launched in 1929.Whisky was not accepted by the Japanese people at the beginning, but he made improvements with passion, the “Kakubin” and “Old” were born, which have become standard as easy-to-drink whiskies and are still loved today.
Suntory can be said to be the manufacturer that spread whisky culture to Japan.
In 1984, Yamazaki was developed after two years of trial and error, with the determination to create. a single malt whisky that would represent Japan.
After 2003, numerous brands such as “Yamazaki 12-year”, “Yamazaki 18-year” and “Yamazaki 25-year” have prized awards at international competitions and become popular brands that have been attracted attention from around the world.

NIKKA WHISKY

With the natural power and technology, he learnt there, he built a distillery in Yoichi, Hokkaido, and launched “Nikka Whisky Rare Old” in 1940.

Enjoy
Asset
Whisky is the best souvenir for people who love it.
Many people may know the brand name as it is highly appreciated all over the world.Be sure to give them a gift of whisky that cannot be available in other countries.If you don’t like drinking alcohol, a ceramic bottle can be nicely displayed as an ornament.
We recommend tasting Japanese whisky yourself, full of Japanese skill, passion, and attention to detail.
You can drink it at a much lower price than restaurant where you go to in your trip.
Enjoy it with Japanese snacks such as Edamame, Chikuwa and Sake-toba.
The above snacks are available in convenience stores and supermarkets everywhere.
Since 2009, Japanese whisky has continued to increase in value worldwide.
While it has won numerous top prizes and other awards at global competitions, demand has outstripped supply due to distillery closures and end-of-life sales of products due to a shortage of original whisky.
Many high-end whiskies are being forged in Japan and aboard, but all products handled by the “Whisky Temple” are authenticated by professional assessors.
Now that the Japanese yen is depreciating, why not acquire whisky as an asset before the demand for whisky increases in the future?
