Traveler highlights
Suntory’s Hakushu Distillery is the company’s second whisky distillery, established in 1973 in Hakushu, Hokuto City. The site also includes a bottling plant for Suntory Tennensui Minami-Alps natural water, drawing on water from the Southern Alps; the pure water is an important part of making whisky here. A visit can follow the production process from ingredients through fermentation and distillation, then compare Hakushu whiskies of different ages and flavors in a tasting area. There is also a shop and restaurant. Whisky fans can connect the brand’s history, production and tasting in one visit while seeing how Hokuto’s natural setting relates to its distilling tradition.
