Enough to make your eyes water, hahah! How much are they in the States? Also, 12 more expensive than 17?!
Availability of the rye started out slow here. I think the first time I saw one was back in November. Saw a few more in different stores by January and now every store in my county has them on the shelves. About 200 bottles showing up in their inventory search.Yep very similar experience, especially on the nose. After a couple of sips, it was much more evident which was which. The rye version of this cranks up the flavor and compliments an already incredible profile, it's definitely not your "typcial" rye, which I really applaud JD for, not straying too far from the original. The regular SBBP are readily available here but not the ryes, this particular bottle I had to import in. But..... I've now seen 2 stores within driving distance that have gotten them in, so I'm hopeful they'll become more readily available soon.
Whoa where’d you get the 12 mini? Sell or trade me for that 17
Oh snap! How is it!? I’ve heard it’s delicious and a great alternative to WT12
Mini was free when I purchased the 17. I got it at a duty free over a decade ago. Mini was delicious so obviously keeping the 17. Not sure what I would even trade this for. Maybe a rack of Capitol city $5’s.Whoa where’d you get the 12 mini? Sell or trade me for that 17
I only have 17 minis

Do you have a rack of Capitol city $5’s? I can add some cash on top of the 17. I don’t wanna bother trying to trade for a barrel of cc $5’s.How much capcity $5s. A lot right? I don’t think H17 is that much. I have 2 bottles now and I think I got them in $750 trade each

I doubt any CC $5’s are available and you have enough Hibiki in your stash lol. I will keep my one lonely bottle.I’m just saying it would take a minimum of H17s x 3 for a rack of CC$5s. I know where some racks are and I’d be interested if you could make that trade but I doubt it.
Here’s my Japanese left
Yama18 x 2 (just gave one away)
Hak18
H12
H17 x 2
H21 x 2

Didn’t know that was a thing, but I’d kill for oneAnyone pick up kings county distillery barrel picks by any chance?
They're typically $110-$140 for 6yr juice, but they been putting out some pretty good stuff that's off profile. 2 store picks dropped recently nearby if you want oneDidn’t know that was a thing, but I’d kill for one

If I can find some time tonight I'll dig mine out. I've 100% given up on limiting my open bottles at this point lol.
Nope. Unless you collect trophy bottles
