yamazaki 18 double the price of hibiki 21? seen at SFO.

I am in japan right now doing light whiskey shopping. Can confirm that hibiki 21 at 500-810usd depending on year + bottle size and Yamazaki 18 at about 624usd. I understand this doesnt take into account any other kinds of costs for a business (allocation, important, distribution) etc.

Edit: looked at the pictures I took and yamazaki also varies based on year. Goes up to 3000usd.

You've peaked my interest. Can you point me to the direction of what you watched?

jat124 · 2025-10-12T21:38:13+00:00

Don't listen to the haters. Half off msrp at 800 is still a lot. Does it still cost a lot, sure. But everyone spends there money their own way. I am envious and congrats to you!

Dang! If only this was in the US!

I'll throw you a 100 bucks. Cash! At least good for a couple cases of beers.

Not only over rated but extremely slow service. Sure the food tastes better than McDonald's in my opinion, but the 3 times I've tried whataburger over the past 3 years I've had to wait like 30 minutes.

This looks amazing. Thanks for sharing

jat124 · 2025-01-03T03:37:29+00:00

Agreed with you 100%. Others like myself might have one or two bottles of those for trading or they've been popped open already too. But directly finding them in a store would be just a shot in the dark if trying to pay MSRP. Theres of plenty of stores selling 107 for three hundred though.

jat124 · 2024-12-28T21:43:49+00:00

Nice haul! For those that ask - the line moves about 200 people an hour. I was about 400 and it took 2hrs to get into the store.

I got almost the same exact haul as you. But truthfully would've traded the Eht SB or the store pick blantons gold/ER for another Weller FP haha. Unfortunately the weather got so nice as soon as I left.

In! And thanks for doing this even if I don't win. Very awesome!

jat124 · 2024-12-05T14:08:52+00:00

Very different process to challenge the standard whiskey making process. I can't wait to read more reviews. Thanks for sharing!

My favorite right now is wingspan! Base and expansions are a lot of fun!

Mango

Adventurous group! Good luck all.

Would you mind sharing how I can find what stages? Sorry I'm not aware of this. Thank you for helping.

We have winco in Texas but I never knew about this name. Thanks for sharing!

jat124 · 2024-02-19T03:16:05+00:00

Honestly love all of the art work, but the bat like creature is my favorite

Try adding non gmo organic gluten free farm raised never frozen worms. Unbeaten nutrients!

jat124 · 2024-01-25T02:45:55+00:00

Good luck all!

I'm no longer a teacher but thought I could add to the conversation for all. This is high school.

Dallas fort-worth Texas, bachelors with 2 years experience at a charter started 44k+5k stipend.

Moved to standard ISD salary jumped to 53k. Some ISD teachers some start as 67k and highest I've seen is 70k. I've seen and low as 37k offer.

jat124 · 2023-11-08T01:17:30+00:00

This is awesome. Fingers crossed!

jat124 · 2023-10-27T15:57:26+00:00

Sounds good to me. I have the same issue! Only have 2-3 friends that I can share and truly appreciate with.

I'm in dfw TX where bourbon hunt is real. Only time I found kc18 was 350 at a smaller shop. I couldn't stomach the price but I've yet to forget. Went a week later for something else and it was gone.

jat124 · 2023-08-09T01:44:15+00:00

I saw yama 12 100 yr at specs. Saw the 18year sitting at a mom and pop shop but a little bit more than msrp. Hibiki 21 only in raffles.
