[QUOTE="cibo, post: 252464, member: 1388"] I also recommend that bottle. I love Japanese whiskies from Suntory (yamazaki, hakushu, hibiki). I recently came back from Japan with a shit load of whisky. I even visited the yamazaki distillery and had the reverse offerings there including the sherry cask yamazaki. If you can get a hold of that one, that's an amazing bottle. It just won a bunch of awards this year. The demand and price sky rocketed the last few months to a grand a bottle for a no age brew. [URL]http://www.cnn.com/2014/12/01/travel/japan-suntory-whisky-bible-award-winner/[/URL] I'm a bit disappointed i didn't take back a bottle. Even though it was very good, I didn't think it was special enough with the no age and $50 price versus the 10 to 15 year whiskies i bought. I figured I could just pick up a sherry later and no problem. Oh well.

A bit more smokey than Yamazaki. I brought back a bottle for one of my clients and he said that was one of the best whiskies he's ever had.
