check my 3days Tokyo Metro Pass
bought on 20th Feb... expired on 30Sept
didnt hv da expiry date u mention




Bonus Tokyo Tower Certificate

There is. Below your expiry date, its says valid for 3 consecutive days in Japanese

Two expiry date. If you don't activate this card...it will auto expiry on Sept 30.

Once you activate it, 3 consecutive day

From what I understand most passes are based on calendar days rather than the actual time. It will expire on the 3rd day regardless of what time you used it on the first day.

4 days to go before returning to Malaysia, walking non stop everyday till feet sore. Kyoto and Tokyo crowded like mad

FYI.

Just back from my Tokyo/Kyoto/Osaka trip.

Apparent they already stop restocking the normal Yamazaki, Hakushu and Hibiki. Only will sell special editions (much more expensive).

As of today, left Yamazaki and Hakushu (ageless) 700ml and Hakushu 12 year 180ml in KIX.

KIX airport prices (before they stop selling)
Yamazaki/hakushu 3000
Yamazaki/hakushu 12 5700
Yamazaki 18 16500
Yamazaki 21 96300

Hibiki 12 4100
Hibiki 17 8000
Hibiki 21 16500
Hibiki 30 96300

All 700ml

Reason why stop is apparently they are running out of stock. Not sure in future will have or not. Those in Osaka area can still get from Yamazaki Distillery (must pay tax) or if you lucky, can find from department stores around Osaka area but you won't be able to get Yamazaki 12 as it's too popular. Hibiki 12 or Hakushu 12 maybe can, but I reckon will become more rare too.

On another note, managed to find Macallan 12 year sherry cask for only 3600 yen in Osaka =D.

lucaswjk okie I see how first. Booked flights for October but not fully sure can go or not. Wait another few weeks if confirm then only ayam ask u for opinions. Me ish UNKER liao so don't mind doing slow and relax and see trees trip

If Oct tak jadi then gonna shift the flights to Jan/Feb for winter I guess.

Won't lah, if kena oso then we will start petition on Whitehouse website ask stimix to unban.

This yamazaki so nice to drink?

if you can get it cheap in Japan, it is worth it. Rrp in Malaysia is not worth it.
Also, Yamazaki shot to fame when they were awarded for being a top whiskey.

ooooo ic. previous trip i bought those plum wine thing also nice ler. #MissingJapan now.....

yes it is, if you are a frequent drinker of whisky, you can tell the smoothness

Move over Yamazaki, here comes Kavalan

LOL - how much are this ? But scare food / drink from Taiwan, don't know what they add additional to make it taste nice I know is not all the food / drink, but the perception is there.

busted, cannot sinka anymore...
at least 2person know japanese here
---

u r not the oni unker here

btw if u go during winter...
i cant help much
better ask TS or Ping

my personal opinion,
so far hokkaido is my most fav place in japan
but it need massive traveling time
if u planned for 5days... u better stay in tokyo
for unker trip, u need at least 10/12days... minimum

they r #1 rite now
the reason they able to produce better wiskey than those aged one... is water from Yi Lan and mountain area

Yeah ever since they shot to fame, visitors to Japan are buying them in droves. So difficult to find the 12 year expression =(

anyone coming back from Japan? pls buy whiskey for me. don't mind paying extra 10-15%

i remember drinking it last time before they won it. that time still young. Dont know how to enjoy.Recently buy to drink and try. I feel it may be good for a 12, but for that price... a bit hesitant.

Honestly, if you can get a macallan 15 for yamazaki 12 price. macallan 15 is still a better drink to enjoy.

Both of Us working in Japan company. Japanese language are must.
Now day so many people discuss Yamazaki whiskey.....
This wishkey are Essential "must" item inside Private Jet. Once I flying I drink it....for free

if wan to work in japan
