Check in time states 1600, but I received an email at 0830 saying my room was ready. Our room was in the main building and not the annex. It was on the 2nd floor and only abutted one other room, so it was a relatively quiet stay. I reserved a 2 Queen Standard and upon arrival found I had been upgraded to a 2 Queen Standard Ocean View. It has a more of a 60's coastal motel feel, like a renovated low-end property, however it has been well cared for and made for an enjoyable stay. This is not what you think of when you think hotel. I was at the point of using or losing a free IHG anniversary night and decided to have a close-by staycation in Del Mar. There are good restaurants nearby as is a Von's grocery store. This hotel is less than half an hour from both the San Diego Zoo and the San Diego Safari Park, so it’s a perfect location to stay if you plan to visit both parks. Walking out from the hotel grounds just two blocks away is an access point for Sea Cliff Coastal Trail, a bluff top walking path. The hotel has a guest laundry with coin operated washers and dryers, which is very useful for longer stays. There is also a separate console containing a small cube refrigerator and a Keurig coffee maker on a pull out tray. The bathroom sink console had enough counter space and had additional space down below it to stash more things. There is plenty of space to put your stuff away and plenty of charging outlets, both on the night table and in a shelf within the large dresser. The room itself is extremely well designed. Nearby was a convenient large trash can so clean up from our picnics was easy. We got takeout and ate here several nights. In front of our room was a courtyard patio with picnic tables. ![]() There is a ceiling fan, and the large, west facing windows keep the room bright and cheerful during the day.

A portion it is under renovation as part of Suntory’s 10-billion-yen (S$93.5 million) investment to enhance the visitor experience. This frenzy for all drinks Japanese manifests itself at Yamazaki Distillery. We have challenges to supply whisky, but our first priority is quality.” Barrels at Yamazaki Distillery (Photo credit: The House of Suntory) How The House of Suntory makes Yamazaki whisky So after our previous situation, our current situation is very good for us. Today, he runs Beam Suntory’s Asia Pacific operations from a gleaming office in downtown Tokyo. “My first 10 years with Suntory was in the whisky department, and it was very tough,” said Masaki ‘Mory’ Morimoto, who joined the company in 1992. Kakubin, Suntory’s mass-market whisky that combines liquid from their three distilleries, continues to be Japan’s most popular and bestselling example. Last year, they launched World Whisky Ao in Singapore, a blend of seven whiskies from five countries made possible by their buyout of Jim Beam in 2014. Whether these moves will keep hysteria in check remains to be seen, but in the meantime, Suntory has other whiskies for you. ![]() World Whisky Ao (Photo credit: The House of Suntory) Additionally, the company increased its Japan storage capacity by 50 percent at the end of 2022 as compared to 2016. It also halted sale of Hakushu 12 Years Old but brought it back in 2021. The House of Suntory’s response has been to stop selling the blended 17-year-old Hibiki in 2018. “We have been running at full capacity for the last 20 years,” a Suntory executive said. But unlike a spirit like gin, an award-winning Hakushu 25 Years Old takes 25 years to make. More accolades followed, and more people clamoured for Japanese whisky. When whisky critic Jim Murray named Yamazaki Sherry Cask 2013 as the 2015 World Whiskey of the Year, global demand skyrocketed. The 30-plus years of downturn reversed abruptly around the mid-2010s. The first Yamazaki single malt was released in 1984, more than 20 years after Torii’s death. Competitors like Nikka, Hanyu, and Karuizawa followed, and Torii’s successor, Keizo Saji set up the Chita and Hakushu distilleries in the early 1970s to make grain and peated whiskies. Local demand for Western liquors was thriving back then, and he opened Yamazaki Distillery in 1923 to make whisky based on a philosophy of monozukuri, which prioritises relentless perfection, attention to detail, and high quality. The House of Suntory’s first hit was not whisky, but sweet wine, which Torii created in 1907. Yamazaki Distillery (Photo credit: The House of Suntory) How The House of Suntory invented Japanese whisky Today, the same liquid in Singapore is S$379, if you can even find it. In 2011, I saw bottles of Yamazaki’s 12-year-old single malt discounted to US$40 (SG$54) at a supermarket in the US. In 2018, a slightly younger 50-year-old Yamazaki fetched US$300,000 (S$406,000) in Hong Kong. One example was auctioned off in Amsterdam for more than a million Singapore dollars. In 2020, the brand released Yamazaki 55 Years Old, currently the world’s oldest Japanese whisky, at an initial price of JP¥3.3 million (S$30,000). If he had any clue to how successful his spirits have become, he might have laid out the path entirely in gold. It has been 100 years since Suntory founder Shinjiro Torii established Yamazaki with the goal of making premium Japanese whisky. A disused pot still, its black coat as moody as the grey March sky, points to the birthplace of Japanese whisky. After a brief walk through a charmingly quaint village, a chimney peeks out from behind budding spring trees. At a local okonomiyaki restaurant, bottles of The House of Suntory’s illustrious whiskies are tucked away on a high shelf. Discreet signs around the station direct people where to go. It first requires a 30-minute train ride from Japan’s historic capital of Kyoto, and it gradually unfurls from there. ![]() ![]() There are 16 episodes total in the first season, with the final episode expected to drop on Aug.
