What is your favourite drink for a cold night? Yoichi Heavily Peated is a special edition release, which hit the market in 2015. With a only 3000 bottles made, it is impossible to find now days. With the snow ❄️ melting in Yokohama, it is still a little chilly, so some Peated whisky is still needed to keep warm 🔥! . Yoichi - Heavily Peated - 3000 Bottles - 48.0% ABV . . . #whisky #whiskey #scotch #dram #scotchgram #yoichi (at Kamakura)

I love the Yamazaki Limited Edition range. Here is the 2016. The 2015 is my favourite, but I cannot wait for the 2018 to arrive. It is always released around Father’s day in Japan!

Christmas 🎄 Eve dram and it just happens to be the The Fuji-sanroko 18 Year (2016) Small Batch! Great for a blend, but I preferred the Oloroso Cask Finish. Have to love the Olympic Tanuki (Japanese Racoon Dog) . . . #whisky #whiskey #scotch #dram #scotchgram #photooftheday #drinks #drink #instapic #scotchporn #instawhisky #instawhiskey #neat #drinking #scotchwhisky #scotchwhiskey #whiskyporn #whiskylover #whiskeylover #whiskytasting #scotchtasting #whiskycollection #drinkstagram #drinkoftheday #drinkswithfriends #whiskyenlightenment #fujisanroko #kirinwhisky (at 狸 tanuki bar)
