  • how does this compare to hibiki or yamazaki? i havent had this one before.

      Different tastes…

      This is a single malt… Hibiki is a great blend. Very different palate. Worth reading master of malt etc for some decent reviews on these.

    • Not a big fan and probably the least popular out of the Suntory range in Australia.

      If you compare this to Yamazaki 12 which retails for $200-220 and Hibiki 12 ~$220ish in Dan Murphys. I don't think my local ever ran out of Hakushu 12's even at a $150 price point

      please don't

      • I actually had coke zero with hibiki 17 when I was in Japan last week.

        Would recommend, but maybe not at Australian prices.

          There was a reason you got kicked out of office.

        • @twitch1979:

          It was only like 900 yen ($11) for 50mls so I said what the hell, I'll do it for the meme.

    Wow!.. 4 yrs ago I paid AUD $40 at Tokyo Airport for this bottle!!

    • +4

      How much did it cost you to get to Tokyo?

      • Troll!.

      Are you sure it was the 12yo not the standard Distiller's Reserve?

      • I dont remember now but it was either 12yo or 18yo.

        • +1

          I'll back you up. I paid about $40 at Kansai about 5 years ago, for the 12 year.
          I have requested a replacement bottle several times from family members travelling to and from Japan, but they can only ever find the distillers reserve which is a good drop but not nearly as good as the 12.
          It's smokier and peatier than a typical Jap whisky. My favourite.
          Not for Aus local price though. Ouch.

        • @barefoot:

          It's not "Aus Local Price" any more. Japanese Whisky has gone up around the world due to the increase demand for it over the last few years.

    Great price for 12 y/o: so hard to get aged Japanese Whisky now…

    I bought 2 bottles of the Chita whiskey in Japan a few weeks ago for $40 each. It's $160 over here.

    • You have to remember, duties alone costs $82.27 per litre per 100%. So a Chita which is 700ml at 43% is $24.76 alone in duties not taking into account shipping and GST.

      You can still pickup Chita's duty free in Australia for $80 which is still a bargain

  • good luck finding this stuff in store in Japan…

    • +1

      what you on about? this is not as rare as the other bottles… Easily found.

    • +1

      you can easily find this one in japan for about 9000yen before 8% sales tax

      Saw a couple in bic camera shinjuku last week, a few in liquors hasegawa in tokyo station… Just have to look for it. Same goes for hibiki and yamazaki.

    hey guys just a heads up this has been available for awhile. you can place the order through but then you will eventually get a call from first choice saying its out of stock. has happened to me many times.

    i tried to buy this on Tuesday but before i tried i gave them a call and they said theres no stock + a back log of people waiting for it.

    If its available in store, give them a call before you rock up and do an order!

    • Price match at dan Murphy's?

      • haha i actually did price match at dan murphys cos they just need to see that its available online.

        Just call them up and they will match it!

        • Imagine how cheap you could do it if you could match the $10 off
          Plus cash rewards
          Plus 5% wish gift discount

  • All out /mope

  • $10 off Coupon has expired any more for FEB?
