I used to drink it a bit. Used to cost about $135 and was ok at that price. But for this price it is not value at all. But this is too much. I used to drink this and think, meh, and then move onto the Yamazaki 18 YO. Which used to be about $220 in Japan. Don't get me wrong, a fine whisky, just not worth the money. (In my opinion - and what do I know anyway).

Tried it once in a bar, wouldn't buy a bottle unless I find myself in Japan. Great, fruity and well-rounded whisky, don't get me wrong. However, as a comparison (I am looking at my Dan's cart), for the exact same price of one Yamazaki 12, I have added three whiskies: Bunnahabhain 12, Clynelish 14 and Redbreast 12. Also, Suntory will raise prices further in April 2024. Hibiki Harmony and Hakushu range are also out of control. Sorry, it is just a fad at this point.

drink 1 less 1, definitely one of the best whiskey. if you like Jp whiskey, buy and keep more now before more contamination in the country.

If I gave this to a friend they would love me foreva!!!!!!😁 it is a great QUALITY drop!!!! 🇯🇵👌🏻

This whisky is exceptional and was my favourite purchase back when it was reasonably priced ($100). Unfortunately, the popularity was too high for the supplier (won too many awards?) and the price skyrocketed. It's a wonderful whisky and I would love to drink it again, but it's not going to happen at the current price ($450). This is exactly the same story with the Hakushu and the Hibiki, which are also incredibly good whiskies which have been priced far too high. I'd happily pay $150 for a bottle.

The taste, the smell, the feel of this whisky and the whole story behind it as well being Japanese and essentially just the care and attention to detail behind it. A perfect whisky for me at so many levels
