Japanese whisky. Anyone gotten on this train yet? I just picked up a bottle of hatozaki small batch, and it's pretty freakin' good. I'm not sure how I feel about paying 2/3 the price of lagavulin for a six year old blend, but I'll definitely enjoy it.

I've thought about it, but the price has always kept me away.

I had some really good whiskey in Japan in the 90's but it was usually of a lower ABV ( mostly 80, one was 85 IIRC)
Mostly tasty but when you drink it straight or rock it, it seemed a bit light. Don't think I've had anything recently though, I'm sure they are more on point nowadays...

Wait. Japanese whiskey? I like bourbon, would that work for me?! Where do I get that...Hy-Vee?! I'm partial to 80 proof like Four Roses.
