Comment
3000 bottles, exclusively for the japanese market
No such plans at the moment. I think the price of those older epssexrions would work against such a move in the sense that a 500ml of a (relatively) expensive bottle would still seem expensive. Whereas with the 12yo, the perception will be that the 500ml seems quite reasonable. After all, people see the price first, and other matters (size, …) follow that.
Kameya has been dribbling out six bletots at a time on their online service. I got a bottle on the second try, though it sold out right away. First impressions are very positive, though the taste is a little overwhelming if you try to drink it straight. The aroma and finish are especially remarkable.
