The official website has a “Seminars” section, which is currently under preparation.
Each event will feature a seminar, in which industry celebrities will serve as lecturers to explain their products and thoughts. The content of this year’s seminar has not yet been decided, but we will wait for further information on the official website.
3-2. Original festival-only bottles
For each festival, there is an entry ticket for a drawing for a “festival-limited original bottle,” and you may win a limited-edition bottle from a popular distillery in Japan. The official website will make an announcement as the date of the festival approaches.
4. Finally
This is the second festival to be held in Yokohama, and this time the venue is very large, and since it is a one-day event, we expect a large number of visitors.
Also, each year brings new pleasures, such as the opportunity to sample newborns and new makes from domestic distilleries that were not yet in production the previous time.
