I was told by a local store owner..some stores get 1 bottle yamazaki 18 a month only.
That said ana lounge at haneda had Hakushu 12 and was served hibiki harmony on ana. | Don't go to the liquor stores. Go to BIC Camera or Yodobashi Camera dept stores. Much better chance of finding stock.

Had the Hibiki 21 on board ANA, I kinda liked 18 better. Hakushu a little peaty/smoky for me.

Plenty of stock right now of Taketsuru 17 and 21 at department stores around Nihonbashi in Tokyo. At least when i was there 2 days ago. Didn't see a single bottle of aged suntory product anywhere except for a couple 50ml bottles of Yamazaki 12 at Liquor Hasegawa.
Came home with this guy to add to the collection: |

Also-- toured the Kavalan Distillery in Taiwan. Honestly, found most of it ok, nothing great. Except for the Fino. It's wonderful. |

so i ended up at NRT, and guess HIbiki 17 stock was replenished..
guess im done buying Japanese whiskey for a while. maybe save up for hibiki 21-30 or yamazaki 25 etc. saw them going for about 25000 yen.
Plus need to buy more shelf space. bottles like glenmorangie or 1l duty free
bottles dont fit.
:P
