Yeah, it's as good as they say it is. Know what's even better? Getting the last pour of it, probably ever, at your preferred local bar. The bartender gave me more like a pour and a half because there wasn't quite enough for a second...happy Father's Day to me! This has pretty much everything you could want in a Japanese whisky, or about any other kind - a nose that smells like a cookout in a fruit orchard at high season, a pleasantly rich (but not heavy) mouth with the right balance of ripe stone fruit, pineapple, and mango with charcoal smoke. The finish is lingering and smolders like those coals on the grill do long after you've finished cooking. So, so good - drink it if you can find it.

Look up yoichi 15 on winesearcher, then call listed liquor stores to confirm availability
False alarm. Total wine was advertising 1 bottle left in the country and not far from me, but it was gone. I did, however, score an Octomore 6.3 (258 ppm) in another nearby liquor store that I went in on a whim. I've been tiring to find this forever, so thanks for the tip.
Wow 160 assume that's USD ! I'd pick a few at that price from a reputable store. The yoichi 15 is just too good to pass on - All the best !
At $160, buy it. Here in the US, it's close to $400
Given that it's been discontinued (as far as I know), $160 isn't unreasonable.
Is $160 a good price for this?
this is probably, and sadly, discontinued now. impossible to find anywhere. at least at a reasonable price
