Whisky Festival Tokyo 2023 Bottle Lineup Is OUT!

 

As we look towards the end of 2023, we have several mega festivals to look forward to, one of which is the Whisky Festival 2023 in Tokyo, which will run on 2nd and 3rd December 2023.

And as we all know, whisky festivals excitingly come with some commemorative bottles! As is tradition, this year's Tokyo whisky festival will continue to add to the long-running Glover Collection.

 

The collection is named after Thomas Glover, a Scottish merchant who became a notable industrialist in Japan, and whose son Tomisaburo Kuraba had created 801 fish charts in commemoration of.

The Glover Collection of whiskies celebrates his connection between Scotland and Japan, initially starting with independently bottled Scotch whiskies, but has now moved to independently bottled Japanese single malt whiskies.
