M	Mary N on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 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
Y	Yee Lu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 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!!
E	Ed Li on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I gotta say, this distillery is one of the Best distilleries I’ve visited in Japan! Its set in a serene and beautiful forest and the dram it produces is one of most sought after in the world! I highly recommend the ¥1000 whisky tour as they take you on a beautiful journey around the distillery plus the free tasting and highball making class at the end is well worth it. Downside is it’s a bit of a trek to get here, as the free shuttle is not as frequent as you’d expect! Tip: cost efficient way to get to get here is to buy a 5 day Flexi JR East pass. this pass will cover you for travel for all Tokyo JR lines, won’t cover you travelling west to Osaka or Kyoto. Fastest way to get here is a train from Shinjuku to Kobuchizawa and take the free shuttle. If you miss the shuttle the taxi is the best bet price estimate - ¥1500-¥2000. PS: there’s no aged whisky or any hakushu at this distillery. They only have the Chita for ¥3500 or so.
K	Ki Tsang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 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.
H	H. O.J on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 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.
B	Bryan Harris on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 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.
C	Chris Payne on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 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.
Z	Zachary Hubbell on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Did a remote tour of the distillery and it was great! The attached photos are the remote tour “kit” that they deliver shortly before the Zoom tour. The tour is entirely in Japanese, so some language ability is required. Very informative and very good! Looking forward to visit in person.
