  1. I wonder the 3k tour will allow you to buy a bottle of H12 too?
  2. The 3k tour includes an 'original tasting glass' (which I have bought from Yama many times). But the 5k premium tour also include a 'glass holder' - what is this?
While the facilities are amazing, having done the Yama tour a few times, it's starting to get repetitive. But I don't mind the train ride out there if it means the chance of being able to sample + purchase some reasonable priced whisky before the next price increase....
Did the Yamazaki tour today. Similar to last time in 2019; still enjoyable and tasting session fun. Can buy Yamazaki NAS for 4950 yen at end, and suggested tasting limit 6 samples up from 3
