This thread is about where to find whiskey in Japan. Extended discussion about where to find Japanese whiskey elsewhere is off topic and will be removed.

Managed to get a bottle of the 18 Year Old Yamazaki from the Yamazaki Distillery Shop nr Kyoto ( You need to ask as it's hidden away) for 27,000Yen.....
They also had the Hibiki 30 Year Old for 135,000 Yen.
After some hunting, found the Hibiki 17 Year Old in a back street Liquor Shop in Kyoto for 15,800 Yen... The Gold labeled one.
Same shop has the Yamazaki 12 Year Old and at least one more Hibiki 17 Year Old & 21 Year Old. Will update with prices if I can find the phone pictures.

Although out of my price range and I think I prefer the 17/21 Year Old Hibiki.
There were a few liquor stores in Kyoto (Liquor Mountain) which had the 30 Year Old Still for around 235,000/285,000 yen.

i will be at nrt in a couple of weeks and have two questions:
1. is hibiki 12 available for purchase at NRT? if so, how much?
2. do they provide those TSA bags at nrt so that you can carry on a liquid and make it through a US connection (i.e., NRT-ORD-MIA)?
thank you!
