TOKYU HOTELS & RESORTS CO., LTD. will also be selling its original whiskey "Single Malt Komagatake Special Edition Goto" produced at Mars Komagatake Distillery of Hombo Shuzo Co., Ltd. at HAKUBA TOKYU HOTEL from November 1, 2024.

Since its founding, TOKYU HOTELS has been implementing various initiatives under the slogan "TOKYU HOTELS is all about food." As a new initiative, the company has launched a project to create a beverage that will represent TOKYU HOTELS. With the cooperation of Hombo Shuzo, which aims to "create authentic whiskey that makes the most of Japan's natural environment," Goto was born.

The creation of this whisky began with the desire to create memorable moments through whisky at various points of contact with customers. In March 2024, four project members led by our company president, Murai, visited the Mars Komagatake Distillery in Nagano to select the base malt spirit. The base of this whisky is Hombo Shuzo's malt spirit "Komagatake," which has won numerous awards in competitions both domestically and internationally. From among the elegant types, the deep sherry cask types, and the fragrant peaty types, we chose new American white oak barrels, which have a gorgeous aroma and can be suited to a variety of situations.

The selected raw liquor was distilled at the Mars Komagatake Distillery in 2015, bottled in new American white oak barrels, and aged for nine years. The raw liquor was quietly aged at the distillery, surrounded by majestic natural forests at the foot of Mount Kiso Komagatake in the Central Alps, blessed with a cool climate and high-quality water. The single malt single cask Goto is a whiskey characterized by a balance of delicate aromas reminiscent of red berry fruits, dried figs, and Assam tea, as well as the sweetness of grains and the lingering aroma of wood. The aroma stands out even when mixed with soda, so it can be enjoyed as a pairing with a meal, or straight or on the rocks after a meal.
