Japanese Whisky Discovery Tasting Kit

As many will be aware, Japanese whisky has seen a gigantic boom in popularity within the last 5-6 years and for good reason! A gentle and unique style of whisky, Japanese spirit is a testament to the care that many distillers take within the region. Skyrocketing in popularity has ultimately resulted in Japanese whisky being a hot commodity, as such we've put together a pack which will introduce you to this modern great of the whisky landscape.

Included in this kit is:

5x 30ml Samples of Japanese Whisky

Our sample packs make both an excellent gift and offer a great educational opportunity to taste new whiskies from all over the world in the comfort of your own home. We often release new packs as new whisky is released, so be sure to keep an eye on our Facebook for announcements of new products.
