Good to know. I haven't seen it in the US in a while, and my bottle came from NRT before the big craze took off. This one was at the Keio just outside Shinjuku Station.

Going to Miyagikyo tomorrow, so I hope being that far outside Tokyo they will have some interesting stuff like an age statement Coffee Grain.
