I was fortunate enough to snag a tasting and factory tour spot while I was in Japan. Pretty easy to get to. Learning about their history and their process of making whisky was inspiring. I’ve enjoyed every bit of it. We went in a storage building and the first thing that hits you is the smell of the aging whisky. It’s not a smell for everyone, but it smelt good to me. In the end we got to make our own highballs. The best part was their bar. You can select 3 glasses at a time from their bar selection. I’ve picked some really good ones and then treated myself for another round. I would most likely go back.

The tour and museum is very informative. Prior reservation is recommended. Easy to get fully booked. But no Hakushu whiskey for sell even in the souvenir store at the main factory. A bit disappointed.

Really neat distillery, highly recommend visiting if you can, just make sure you make reservations online as far in advance as possible. The tasting afterwards was fun. Get to the store before the tour if planning to buy whiskey since they will sell out of the daily quota quickly.

You have to pre-book for a small tour however It's well worth it l think.. our guide showed us to a large room where she explained some of the finer points of Hakushu Suntory..we then were treated to a highball which was made with a special blended whiskey.. the whole experience was great & the surroundings of the buildings are set in are absolutely beautiful..the smell of the evoked scents of cinnamon..

Totally worth the trip out here. The tour was very well presented and educational. After the tasting you get to check out the taste bar and try some of the best whiskeys in the world for a very reasonable price. Only negative was there weren't any bottles of whiskey for sale. Overall, still an amazing experience!!

Good experience go on the tour of the Distillery. It is in Japanese but foreigners are given a hand held device in their selected language. The bar has many Suntory brand whisky to offer and at amazing prices, many not found even in bars in Tokyo. The water they offer at the bar is directly from the mountain and it was delicious, best tasting water ever! Only disappointment is there is no whisky to be bought at their shop. Many other souvenirs though. Have to go early as the bar and shop close at 4:30pm. We were rushed.

The tour is educational but the real treat is being able to purchase tastes of their rare whisky. I got to try 25 year whiskies for a little over 100 USD. Incredible! See my photos for the details of the flight

Beautiful location, for whiskey drinkers this is a great place to visit to do tasting only. You can do tasting of the entire subtotal range inc 18 and 25 year old single malts. Due to limited supplies of whiskeys the shop only sells the Chiba whiskey only. No others available at all
