AREA MAP

Located just an hour’s drive from Sapporo city center are two historic regions of Hokkaido: Otaru, the charming port city that used to be the “Wall Street” of Hokkaido, and Yoichi, the small town nestled in the hills that gave birth to Japan’s first ever “Scotch” whisky.

OTARU

Otaru’s retro architecture and historic buildings give the city a nostalgic atmosphere, and the area around the picturesque Otaru Canal is perfect for a stroll in any season. The Sakaimachi Shopping Street boasts a variety of shops, including Kitaichi Glass Otaru and the Otaru Music Box Museum, which showcase the beautiful works of Otaru artists. Alongside the sushi restaurants where you can enjoy fresh seafood, Sakaimachi is also home to some of Hokkaido’s most famous sweet shops.

YOICHI

Just down the coast from Otaru lies Yoichi, the birthplace of the very first “Scotch” whisky distillery in Japan. The seaside town has not only delicious seafood, but is also blessed with bountiful fruit orchards and sprawling vineyards, lately gaining fame within Japan as a wine tourism destination.

Yoichi Distillery

Masataka Taketsuru, the father of whisky in Japan, built the distillery in 1934 in Yoichi, where the cool climate, crisp air, and low humidity resembled Scotland. Here you can learn about the distillation process and even compare flavors at a whisky tasting.
