Sake and Shochu Gumi

The first in a three-part series in collaboration with Chris Lane of Highroad Spirits, we're pleased to invite you to a special holiday whisky tasting, highlighting cult distillery Chichibu and distiller Ichiro Akuto's exemplary whisky styles. 

Chris will be here to go into the history of this world-famous maniac distillery and its whiskies. We've also stockpiled an impressive selection of Chichibu whiskies on our backbar, so if you've ever been curious about some of the unicorn bottlings we have, now's your chance to try them out with a certified expert ready to explain them.
