The first was Suntory Ao (碧). This was a blend of whiskies from distilleries in the 5 biggest whiskies regions - Scotland, Japan, Ireland, Canada and USA. The blend was smooth as expected, however it did not give a deep impression. Probably it would take a while.
The next interesting Japanese whiskies was Akkeshi (厚岸蒸溜所). This was the second whiskey distillery in Hokkaido. We were lucky to first had this whiskey at Akkeshi. Unfortunately we were told that these were sold out then, and could only have Foundation 1 and 2. This time, we were lucky to taste Foundation 3 and 4.
Foundation 3 was matured in Mizunara cask from Hokkaido. And Foundation 4 was a blend of grain and malt whiskey. Akkeshi was definitely an interesting label to watch out. Fortunately these were not ridiculously priced like the other Japanese whiskies. Yet.
We ordered a serving of butter raisin to go with our drinks.
