Yeah, I've heard they are good. Strange.

Just don't see it as a trad whisky place, I shall google.

Japan doesn't have peat, so their whiskies are sweet.
Yamazaki and Nikka are worth investigating, and Hibiki is a seriously good blended one.

I'm very trying.

Also Yamazaki is a distillery (owned by Suntory) but Nikka is a brand. They have a main distillery (in Myagi) which does the sweeter whiskies but also another distillery in Hokkaido which does peaty ones.

soz, rather, Japan is the best country for whisky in terms of quality.
I've never had a bad Nip malt, had plenty of mediocre Scottish ones.

I used to live near the main Nikka whiskey distillery, which do some really good ones (everybody's heard of Suntory, but not so much others).

They did a free tour which included unlimited tastings - I don't think they were prepared for how much an english person could take the piss.

Did you go with someone who actually had a sense of humour then?

yes

Or were you just the standard tour bore piping up every few minutes trying to be funny much to the annoyance of everyone else?
