If
you
are
looking
for
an
evening
in
Kyoto
with
innovative
cocktails
or
incredible
whisky,
Bar
Dots
is
where
you
should
go.
If
you
are
not
used
to
speakeasy
/
whisky
bars
in
Japan,
then
the
cover
charge
may
confuse
you;
let
me
assure
you,
it
is
worth
it
for
Bar
Dots.
The
bartender
on
staff
the
evening
I
visited,
Tsubasa-san,
is
an
incredibly
personable,
knowledgeable,
and
experienced
bartender.
Our
first
cocktails
were
ordered
off
the
menu,
but
soon
after
Tsubasa-san
was
recommending
local
gin
+
whisky
and
crafting
delicious
bespoke
cocktails
with
them.
Personally,
I
am
a
fan
of
whisky,
particularly
scotch.
With
regards
to
whisky,
Tsubasa-san
is
clearly
an
expert
with
broad
knowledge
of
different
kinds
of
whisky
and
will
find
something
that
will
interest
you.
We
had
a
wonderful
time
chatting
about
Scottish
distilleries
like
Kilchoman
+
Glenmorangie
and
Japanese
distilleries
like
Sakurao.
I
look
forward
to
when
I
next
visit
Kyoto
and
can
visit
this
bar
again!
I
will
be
recommending
Bar
Dots
when
people
I
know
visit
Kyoto!
