Hey folks, welcome to episode 17 of the Whiskey Ring Podcast! My guest for this episode is Stefan van Eycken, author of Whisky Rising: The Definitive Guide to the Finest Whiskies and Distillers of Japan.
The Nonjatta Blog
Stefan’s Whisky Magazine Profile
Stefan is simultaneously one of the most important writers on Japanese whisky and perhaps one of the most unknown on this side of the Pacific. He’s been in Japan since 2000, when you could find a bottle of Karuizawa on the shelf for pittance compared to today’s prices. For years, he wrote for and then took over the Nonjatta Japanese whisky blog.
I should note that Stefan doesn’t just write about Japanese whisky – he also writes for publications in Japan (and in Japanese) about other world whiskies including Scotch. Japanese whisky is just the point at which our mutual interests met. And trust me – if you like what you hear during this episode, please support Stefan by purchasing a copy of his book and by looking into his other writings. You won’t be disappointed.
