The Distinctive Styles of Hokkaido & Sendai

– Yoichi Distillery: Located on Japan’s northernmost island, Hokkaido, Yoichi is often referred to as the “Islay of Japan.” Its coastal location and traditional coal-fired stills impart a bold, smoky character reminiscent of Scotland’s famed peaty malts.
– Miyagikyo Distillery: Nestled in the mountains of Sendai, Miyagikyo produces lighter, more delicate whiskies that emphasize floral, fruity notes. The region’s crisp air and clean water contribute to its refined and smooth whisky style.
