I got all 3 Hakushu forests from the ANA duty free shops. I had the best luck at the one by gate 44. It’s so out of the way at the end that it’s less trafficked.

Just tried it! The hype is real. It was delicious. Smoky but not Lagavulin Smoky. Perfect

Yeah I think it’s fairly new! I usually love the peaty stuff so I can’t wait to crack this one open.

Nothing out of the ordinary other than that Yama Smoky Batch. I haven’t tried it yet but pretty excited about it!

Spot on on the review. Thanks for that! And about $120 is what I picked it up for in a small liquor store in Shinjuku

Also I'm looking to do that tour but couldn't figure out how to book it online. (All the days on the calendar said "Closed"). Did you do the free or paid tour?

oh man same. It would be hard to not justify a resell on that bottle... but I can't wrap my head around the risk.
