Was able to buy a flight and sample the Yamazaki 18 which was probably one of the best whiskeys I've tasted. Luckily I was able to get my hands on a couple of bottles of Yamazaki 12 to bring home. Took a pic of a bottle of Yamazaki 25 I was able to find but the asking price was almost $7000 USD. Can't see spending that kind of money on a bottle of whiskey.
Thanks for that. How does the Japanese whiskey compare to the Taiwan brands like Kavalan? I've had that every time I fly EVA air and it is nice stuff.
I've never tried Kavalan or any Taiwanese whiskey for that matter so I'm not sure how they compare to each other.
