This event is a special Golden Week project where visitors can stroll through Sakaiminato and compare the unique characteristics of different casks—Mizunara, Red Wine, and Waguri—from the once-sold-out single malt whisky "Rintaro" series produced by the company, across the three stores. Additionally, the limited-time sake "Asashibori" will be available. We also have other GW-exclusive products and events, making this a unique event enjoyable not only for those who drink sake and whisky but for the entire family. *Chiyomusubi Okasora Main Store, Jige no Bussankan, and Taishobashi Branch are about a 4-minute walk along Kitaro Road. ## Highlights of the "Japanese Whisky Festival" (1) "Whisky Tasting Experience" Touring 3 Stores At the three stores—Main Store, Taishobashi Branch, and Jige no Bussankan—different cask-aged whiskies will be offered.
