Two locations in Yaesu Shopping Mall, only one does tastings. Neyah White, bartender and Suntory ambassador: "Happy place. This tiny, but very complete shop is in the massive basement level of Tokyo station. To make things worse, there is a sake shop of similar name down there too and it is nowhere near the whisky shop. Still try to go. They keep many bottles open and will sell you small tastes for ¥500 or so which is a great deal."

Cool place in the middle of Shibuya, open until 10pm. Can get quite expensive. Around $8 per hour per person.

Fantastic cloth-coffee shop. Try the old beans. Coffee is the only drink you can get here.
The unajoo is delicious. Tatami mats only. Opens at 11:30 and runs until they are out of unagi. Arrive before noon to avoid the long queue.
