Overview

Take a private taxi from Kagoshima to Hinokami Distillery, Japan’s southernmost distillery on the mainland, for a unique 90-minute SPECIAL PLAN. Tour the whisky-making facilities with expert staff and visit the rare on-site cooperage to discover the craftsmanship behind Hinokami whisky. The highlight is the world’s first anechoic chamber and vision-limiting “Red Room” tasting, where outside noise and visual distractions are reduced to heighten your senses and reveal the whisky’s delicate flavors. Finish with a premium tasting flight at the Visitor Center BAR, comparing distinctive craft whiskies while enjoying panoramic views of Mount Kaimon and the East China Sea. An English-speaking guide will not accompany the group, but the tour inside the distillery will be conducted in English.
