    Even if you don’t drink whiskey at all, a visit to the famous Suntory Yamazaki Distillery is a must see. Book weeks in advance for the tour though cos it gets full extremely fast.

    The distillery tour is great; the tasting afterwards is just as nice. Make sure to book way in advance and confirm the day before via website. There's a small museum, shop, & bar for more tastings.

    If bookings for the tour and tasting are full, you can also check closer to your preferred date as people might cancel. ¥1000 per person, cash only. Eat something beforehand.

    if you are using the English audio guide, start listening to it right away while waiting for the tour to start. there won't be enough time for you to do so in the tour, especially if you take photos.

    The birthplace of Japanese whiskey with free hourlong tours that explain the distillation process, and culminate with a sampling of Yamazaki single-malt whiskey with soda. (Reservations required)

    The embodiment of the history of Japanese whiskey, now best in world. Audio guides in English too, book ahead. Sampled some great single malts. Totally worth checking out. Free.

    If you are looking for Yamazaki 18yo, you are likely to be disappointed. The duty-free shop in the restricted area of Kansai airport might have some. (I was able to get two from duty free)

    Reservation required even for the self guided museum and tasting but easier to get than a distillery tour last minute.

    If you are in Osaka or Kyoto it is well worth a visit. On the tasting room most whisky brands sell for a meager ¥100 so you might get drunk...

    Tour leaves every hour. Check website for visiting hours. Differs between weekdays and weekends. Around 5 minute walk from Oyamazaki station

    Be sure to go to the gift shop before your tour and buy the Yamazaki Selection which is only available at the distillery (but in short supply).

    After the inspiring tour, buy some goods but pass on the Whisky - bigger selection and better prices at the airport!

    If you're thinking of getting the Hibiki 21 here, don't. You can get it much cheaper at duty free. 750ml; here = 21,000Y. duty-free = 15,000Y. whisky. Hibiki 30: 5/5. Yamazaki 25: 4.5/5

    Yamazaki distillery visit and they are OUT of Yamazaki!?! Come for tastings, not to purchase bottles.

    The tasting room has dozens of whiskies, including rare and distillery-only. Most are around ¥500 for 15ml – although the Yamazaki 25 goes for ¥2900.

    響 30年は 年間数千本しか作れない、貴重で稀少な限定品です。一本700ml 10万円と非常に高額ですが、有料試飲コーナーでハーフショット15ml 2300円で楽しめます。滑らかな口当たり、重厚なコク、華やかな香りはどれをとっても他の追随を許しません。

    鳥井信治郎がウイスキーのブレンドの技を磨く際に愛用した机、日本初の本格国産ウイスキー「白札」ボトル、当時の映像など、日本のウイスキーの歩みを語りかける展示物が盛りだくさん。

    カテゴリにある「Brewery 醸造所」は、アルコール醸造するところです。ウィスキーは、醸造させたものをさらに蒸留して作りますので、このvenueのカテゴリは「Distillery 蒸留製造所」が適当でしょう。

    クルマで行くことは少ないと思いますが、前にあるJRの踏切は狭く渡りにくく、過密ダイヤのためよく遮断機がなかなか上がりません。
