A portion of the membership fees received from our members has been allocated towards the planting of Mizunara oak saplings, a vital component in the realm of Japanese whisky. These saplings were ceremoniously planted in the mountains of Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, the birthplace of the esteemed former Chief Blender of Suntory, now Honorary Chief Blender, Seiichi Koshimizu.

This initiative stands as a testament to the collective contribution made by the members of our community, "In," towards the city of Kofu. Through their participation in this endeavor, our members now embody the role of "contributors to the future of the Japanese whisky industry."
