Before arriving in Otaru, stop in the nearby town of Yoichi for the Nikka Whiskey Yoichi Distillery. The company was founded by Taketsuru Masataka, known as the father of Japanese whisky, who studied whisky making techniques for several years in Scotland before bringing the trade to Japan. The Yoichi Distillery was built in 1934, on a site chosen for its clear water, brisk air and rich peat. Taketsuru believed that the conditions in Yoichi best resembled those found in Scotland and would be perfect for recreating Scotch whisky. The traditional distillation process that he brought over is largely unchanged today. Nikka whiskies have been recognized to rank among the world’s best single malt whiskies and have won numerous awards. After a tour of the facilities, you’ll be able to try some of their tasty products. Otaru, served as a major trade and fishing port in the 1800s. The Otaru Canal‡ makes for a pleasant stroll.
