Yes, but "The Nikka 12" was one they continued production of (and I believe still do, but could be wrong)

This isn't the most helpful data point since it is quite dated but...
I do have a bottle of it that I got while in Tokyo last March. I got it at the YaMaYa near the HR Tokyo. Obviously that was pre-Nikka announcement and nearly a year ago but they did have a bunch there last year.

Tokyu department store, shibuya. I just picked up yamazaki for 25,000. You have to ask it's not on display. They only give you what you ask for, I couldn't get an inventory list. I saw a yamazaki 12 and a hibiki 17.
Right off the shibuya JR exit, basement floor. Good luck
The bic camera nearby has yamazaki 12 for 9xxx, can't remember the exact price

Airport duty free is not a good place to buy whisky anymore. They actually charge more than the regular stores/online stores in Japan. I got couple bottles of The Nikka 12 for Y3900 each delivered!! This applies to Scotch as well!
