Any hikers, climbers, or wanderers here? Where's the most exotic place you've had a glass of whiskey?

'Exotic' to me is the Suntory Hakushu distillery in Japan. It was a simply gorgeous day for a tour in the mountains.

Exciting! Does Japan have an equivalent to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail or is it more spread out? There are several Japanese distilleries I wouldn't mind visiting.

Not that I'm aware of. It was a bit of a trek to get to it from where I was in Tokyo metro area (hour+ train ride and a taxi ride). The bigger ones are definitely spread out a bit. You might be able to find a group of small ones, but I honestly haven't looked. I only had a few days to spare at I was there for work.
