What People Are Saying
The Yamazaki Limited Edition releases generate massive buzz and lottery allocation each year. Community discussion focuses more on the hunt and allocation process than the liquid itself. Those who secure a bottle at retail (around ¥15,000 in Japan) consider it a win, while secondary market prices ($500+) draw criticism. Reviewers who have tasted them generally find them excellent but note that the "limited" label does much of the heavy lifting in terms of demand.
