WHISKY JAPANESE MT FUJI DISTILLERY CHUBA (TOKAI), SHIZUOKA PREFECTURE The Fuji Gotemba distillery was founded at the height of the Japanese whisky industry in the early 1970s. A multinational corporate collaboration drew up plans to open the distillery, and production began in 1973. The collaboration consisted of Seagram’s from Canada, Chivas Brothers from Scotland, Four Roses distillery from the United States and the Kirin Brewery Company from Japan (who distributed Four Roses products in Japan). The syndicate selected the site as they felt that it had a climate most like Scotland’s. The town of Gotemba is over 2000 feet (610 metres) above sea level and is much cooler and less humid (especially in the summers) than other areas of Japan. The water takes 50 years from snow melt on Mt. Fuji to be filtered and used in our whiskies (malt and grain), making us the gift from Mt. Fuji The distillery was originally called the Gotemba Distillery and changed its name to Fuji Gotemba when it came under the sole ownership of Kirin in 2002. Fuji Gotemba distillery is in the town of Gotemba, which lies at the foot of Japan’s iconic Mount Fuji. It produces both single malt and grain whiskies from imported barley and grain from Scotland and Ireland. There are separate still rooms for the single malt and grain whisky production and Fuji Gotemba is one of the few distilleries in Japan to have its own bottling plant and cooperage.
