A tiny, obsessive whisky bar in Shinjuku dedicated almost entirely to Japanese whisky, with one of the most comprehensive selections in the city — over 300 bottles including rare and discontinued expressions. The owner is passionate and knowledgeable, making this a pilgrimage spot for whisky lovers. It seats only about a dozen people, so expect to wait or arrive early.
