About
Opened December 2022 in the heart of Nozawa Onsen Village, Nagano Prefecture, in a historic refurbished canning factory. Hot spring village known for skiing. Initially focused on craft gin (Nozawa Gin), now expanding single malt whisky production aged minimum 3 years in various wood casks. Plans to reach 300 barrels/year. All spirits use locally sourced botanicals and the village's famous onsen spring water. Part of the 'Yoichi Barley Subcommittee' initiative (2025) for all-local production.
