The Japan Inspired Bundle
The artistry of the Japanese is well-known across the globe, symbolising meticulous design, and hand-crafted elegance. Their whisky is no different. When the grandfather of Japanese whisky himself, Masataka Taketsuru, first pioneered a whisky distilled with the same dedication and craftsmanship, it was said to be an elixir made from the tears of the Rising Sun… or so it goes.
Our Japanese-inspired bundle is a nod to the precision of the Far East, so heavily steeped in tradition. It captures that same dedication to quality, offering a whisky experience as refined and artistic as Taketsuru's legacy.

Why buy from Malt & Brew?
Founded by the Melbourne-based Saar family in 2020, Malt & Brew is a locally operated business shipping thousands of glasses and decanters all around Australia.
This bundle includes your choice of our top shelf, Japanese-style glassware. Take the meticulously crafted Hanyu Glass, inspired by the serene elegance and reverent ambiance of a Kyoto temple. The way it holds in the hands feels like a beautiful blend of tradition and modernity. It’s weighty yet delicate, perfectly balanced into a unique tasting ritual.
Choose the Snow Glass, with a subtle, frosted texture as if it were cooled in the gentle snowflakes of Mt Fuji. Each glass captures the beauty of Japan’s natural wonder, with a unique shape and intricate detailing reminiscent of its snow-capped peak. A beautiful vessel that invites you to savour every moment and pays tribute to the timeless beauty of Mt Fuji.
Or the Hammer Glass, taking design cues from the traditional techniques and dedication of Japanese artisans. Much like the hammering of a perfectly balanced katana, each glass mimics the expertise of a master blacksmith. Just by holding the glass, you’ll appreciate the perfect blend of form and function, mirroring the complexities of your favourite dram.
“For those who like their whisky glasses and decanters a little off-kilter, Malt & Brew is for you. Truly unique glasses with a lovely avant-garde, almost abstract shape to them.”
Designed for the discerning whisky connoisseur, the Japanese-inspired bundle offers an intricate sipping experience. The glassware comes housed in a traditional 'tomobako' box, a symbol of respect, craftsmanship and the time-honoured custom of gift-giving. The perfect gift for someone special, the Japanese-Inspired Bundle is a true omiyage for those who appreciate mastery in design.

What people are saying
We highly recommend washing all of our glasses by hand and drying thoroughly before putting away.
No. All of our crystal glassware (including decanters) are made using lead-free crystal. Lead-free crystal replaces lead with barium oxide, zinc oxide, and magnesium oxide. This creates a stronger, non-toxic crystal glass than leaded crystal, whilst maintaining similar qualities.
All orders are dispatched from our Melbourne warehouse within 2 business days via Australia Post.
