Tour Niseko Distillery
Niseko Annupuri foothills, Japan
A guided visit to Niseko Distillery takes you through the production area to see how its gin and whisky are made. The distillery uses local underground water, while Hokkaido sweet gale and Japanese mint are among the botanicals in its ohoro gin. A paid tasting can follow the tour, and the shop and bar can be visited without booking. It is a useful indoor stop for travellers interested in the ingredients and processes behind a regional drink.
