The future for aged Japanese whisky and traditional kaiseki
'This will surprise you," says chef Kenichi Hashimoto as he hands me a glass of what appears to be beer. This serious-faced chef — who leads the kitchen at Kyoto's Ryozanpaku, a two-Michelin-starred kaiseki (Japanese haute cuisine) restaurant — waits for me to take a sip.

He reached wider audiences with "Fear X" (starring John Turturro) and British crime flick "Bronson," but it was really 2011's hyper-speed "Drive" with Ryan Gosling and Carey Mulligan, about a stuntman who moonlights as a getaway-car driver, that broke the doors open.
