About $200....but I still have to enter that lottery system apparently.... The lottery system Okanagan Spirits has is a joke. Constantly enter and miss out then get a call or email a day or two later about bottles being available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably end up asking him to try and get me one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are not technically japanese whiskys but meet the threshold. Both can be had for under $70 https://www.lcbo.com/en/toki-465484 https://www.lcbo.com/en/toki-465484 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They mix it with Cherry Coke and said it tastes like pbj but I had mine on the rocks. Straight up...it was delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's got far more vanilla notes than the matsui and sip for sip isn't terrible at all https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/10377 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting harder to find the 16 the 12 and the 11 Back when I ran the liquor shops I brought in water from the Scotch regions. Yes, water. They came in 100ml bottles. They were meant to press(mix) with the whisky. Silly stuff. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 16 will do the trick for you. Edited January 20, 2023 by Sp3nny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was disappointed in the Distillers myself. Great flavor, but the finish was so underwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
