Celebrating the Suntory Whisky Kakubin and the Japanese Highball

If you're anything like us, having a ice-cold refreshing whisky highballs to pair with good company and bites at your local izakaya (Japanese-style casual drinking joint/bar) is a must.

What you might not know is that Suntory Whisky Kakubin, which is not only Japan’s number one selling whisky, is also the go-to whisky for highballs in Japan. It is so popular that it has its own name -“Kakuhai” - which is a marriage of the words Suntory Whisky KAKUbin and HIGH(hai)ball.

World Martini Day with The House of Suntory

In conjunction with World Martini Day on 17 June 2023, The House of Suntory embarked on a month-long celebration dedicated to this legendary drink with Roku Gin and Haku Vodka. While martini is traditionally crafted with gin, using vodka is also common (for example, the James Bond "shaken not stirred" martini is famously made with vodka). 

 

14 bars throughout Klang Valley, Johor Bahru, and Penang will showcase their own interpretation of the martini featuring Roku Gin and Haku Vodka from 12 June to 28 July. Check them all out and don't say bojio:
