Hi,
I need to fund some "must have" new whisky so have the following highly sort after Japanese whisky for sale.
1x Yamazaki 12 year old
1x Hakushu 12 year old
2x Yamazaki 18 year old
2x Hakushu 18 year old
I'm in the UK so due to shipping costs probably only makes economic sense to ship the 12 year olds in the UK, however drop me a PM and we can see what can be done. Happy to look at a deal for the whole lot as well!
I have seen the Yamazaki 18 as high as £250-£275 in the rare places it is available but willing to accept well under that if going to a fellow malt head.
Thanks
Paul |

Believe duty free stocks have dried up again now.
Have been asked for prices so say...
Yamazaki 18 £160
Hakushu 18 £120
Yamazaki 12 and Hakusu 12 £60
Shipping extra
If you feel that's too much make me an offer and lets talk!
Cheers |

Sold out now at Edinburgh. As confirmed by someone on the MM facebook page.
Opened my first Yamazaki 18 last night and wow... it really is worth the hype/cost. A very refined and enjoyable dram! |

Ah good old personal preference. Why we love talking about whisky right
Of all 4 the Yamazaki 18 is probably the one I enjoy least. Solid and refined but a little underwhelming, and certainly over priced these days. Pick of the bunch for me is Hakushu 12, personal preference right
Prices a little off here though. Any you see online you can discount the prices from, they'll be almost double the true private sale value....what the retailers do.
Auction prices will be lower and you have fees to pay, often 20% on your sale. Personally, if I were buying either of the 18 year olds privately I wouldn't expect to pay any more than £120-£130 each. The 12s at £60ish. In fact I can still pick up Hakushu 12 for £60 including delivery from a reputable online retailer at the moment. _________________ "Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whisky is barely enough." |

Like I said open to offers! Have also reduced the prices on the 12's as per your input.
Need to raise funds for a couple of Highland Parks I have my eye on. |

Sign up for Facebook? Don't do it! Once you sign up its a slippery slope and you'll waste hours of your life looking at pictures of your friends dinner/pets/hoidays - all of which will be better/cuter/more impressive than yours
Well that's my experience anyway!
Just to update that's the 12 year olds and one bottle of each of the 18's sold. Just one bottle each of the 18's left.

Down to just the one 18 year old Hakushu. Let me know if you'd like it.
Almost got enough funds now to buy that elusive Thor! |
