Japan 日本威士忌 饮品之旅(2)

We had such a lovely time with Thomas! He was very knowledgeable, engaging and funny! We gained great insight into Japanese whiskey culture and discovered new favorites.

The whiskey and sake tasting tour led by Thomas was incredible! Thomas was a very knowledgable host and was a great guide who explained everything given to us from proper etiquette, to history in great detail. The places he took us to for the whiskey and sake tasting and also the restaurant for dinner were absolutely incredible in terms of quality of food and atmosphere. Some of which were some of the best foods and drinks I’ve had so far! Absolutely must try and would gladly book again!

Mario was an exceptional guide on our tour. Mario can speak Japanese as he has lived in Japan for 10 years, and he is very knowledgeable. He even was able to order drinks that suited the different taste preferences! Mario was always right on the money with all of the drinks he recommended to us. My favorite drink on the tour was this whisky which was infused with Japanese tea which I tasted at a local bar. It was lovely and we had the bar all to ourselves. Overall, Mario went above and beyond. He gave us lots of recommendations about places in Tokyo we wanted to visit, and where I could buy the whisky and tea from in Tokyo. Mario was really engaging! He taught us not just about drinks but also about the venues and places, making it fun. Mario promptly emailed us pictures from the tour and the ideas he had recommended the next day. Thank you Mario! I can't thank him enough for this fantastic experience.

Hiro and Mario were awesome! The bars they showed us were awesome but out of the way so we never would have found them without their help. They also introduced to drinks we never would have otherwise tried!

Had a wonderful time on this tour thanks to our extremely knowledgeable guide, Gabriela. She took us to all the bars and restaurants and I enjoyed every one we went to. The staff at each place we went to were so nice and very engaging. Gabriela herself was very friendly and personable, and she gave great recommendations on what to order. I have lived in Japan for almost 6 months now, but on this tour I was able to try some foods that I have never eaten before. Gabriela taught us a lot, not just about food, but also about the places we visited and then Japan/Japanese society and culture from a broader perspective. Got a lot of fresh insight to life in Japan. Arigato Gabriela, 10/10 recommend!
