Kanpai & Kampai: Inside the House of Suntory with Daniel Schöll

Ask us a question? Send us a Message!

In this beautifully buzzed episode of Heavily Buzzed, hosts Koko and Jeff Lam are joined by the ever smooth and delightfully knowledgeable Daniel Schöll, the German Brand Ambassador for the House of Suntory. Together, they take a spirited journey through the rich and refined world of Japanese whisky.

We dive deep into the legendary legacy of Suntory how it all began, the philosophy behind the craftsmanship, and why Japanese whisky is basically the liquid embodiment of precision and harmony. Along the way, we sip (okay, savor) two absolute stunners: the elegant Hibiki Harmony and the iconic Yamazaki 18, treating each pour with the reverence of a master samurai on a spiritual quest… with a healthy buzz, of course.

But it’s not all just whisky talk we also explore the cultural art of saying “No” the Japanese way: thoughtful, polite, and just ambiguous enough to make you question everything. It’s the kind of subtle social judo you didn’t know you needed.

Tune in for laughs, sips, stories, and the occasional deep thought wrapped in a whisky haze. Kanpai, friends this one’s a smooth ride.
