The Famous Scottish Woman You've Never Heard Of

Rita Cowan, a name you probably haven't heard before. How did this Scottish woman from Kirkintilloch near Glasgow end up in Japan over 100 years ago and with her Japanese husband Masataka Taketsuru become instrumental in the origins of Japanese whisky and founding Nikka, one of Japan's best known and most successful whisky distilleries? This is a story that has personally fascinated me ever since I first heard about it over 7 years ago. I've spent a lot of time living in Japan over the years and whenever I tell Japanese people I'm from Scotland, I'm often met with the response "Massan" in reference to the TV drama which was made about Rita and Masataka. Since returning to Scotland, many Japanese viewers have requested me to visit Kirkintilloch and explore more about the story of Rita and Masataka in Scotland. I hope for those of you with an interest in this story, can enjoy seeing Kirkintilloch, the town where Rita and Masataka met and where their love story began. 🍿 WATCH NEXT: ISLAY / WHISKY ISLAND:    • Visiting The World's Whisky Island | ...   SPEYSIDE WHISKY COUNTRY:    • Visiting The World's Whisky Country |...   CAMPBELTOWN WHISKY CAPITAL:    • Visiting the World’s Whisky Capital |...   ISLE OF ARRAN:    • Visiting The Scottish Island That Has...   SHETLAND ISLANDS:    • I Travelled The Shetland Islands For ...   EXTRA CONTENT ON PATREON: 🎬 Get access to exclusive uncut and bonus videos, behind-the-scenes content and sneak peeks into future projects -   / ruthaisling   🚌 My Scotland Group Trips: https://ruthaisling.com/group-trips/ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 My Scotland Google Map: https://geni.us/L7sek2P 💌 Free Scotland Travel Guide: https://ruthaisling.com MY OTHER SOCIALS: 📸 INSTAGRAM -   / ruthaisling   🎥 FACEBOOK -   / ruthaisling   📱 TIKTOK -   / ruth.aisling   🌍 WEBSITE - https://ruthaisling.com MY FAVOURITE TOOLS & GEAR: 🚽 Trelino - The best van toilet (Use code RUTHAISLING for a discount or gift): https://geni.us/lC0UmdH 🔋 Bluetti - My favourite van portable batteries (Use code BLUETTIRA for 5% discount): https://geni.us/ewxrm1v 🎵 Epidemic Sound - Music in my videos: https://geni.us/a1Qq WHO AM I?
