Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: August 30, 2026

The Nihon Spirits Guide is reader-supported. When you buy sake, whisky, or related products through links on this site, we may earn a commission from the retailer — at no additional cost to you.

The Nihon Spirits Guide is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

The Nihon Spirits Guide is also an affiliate of Palate Project (formerly Tippsy Sake), a U.S.-based Japanese sake retailer, and earns a commission on qualifying purchases made through Palate Project links on this site. We are still in the process of joining affiliate programs with reputable whisky retailers; this page will be updated as those programs go live. Commission does not influence which products we recommend; our reviews reflect our own research into sourcing, production, and quality.

Affiliate links on this site open in a new tab and are marked with a rel="sponsored" attribute, consistent with FTC endorsement guidelines.

Please note: the retailers we link to are responsible for age verification and for confirming they can legally ship to your state or country. Availability varies by location — we note this where relevant, but always confirm at checkout.

This site is intended for readers of legal drinking age in their jurisdiction (21+ in the United States). Please drink responsibly.
