                                                                                       a 15yo, 100ml
            Suntory bottle that sold for £75 followed by Suntory White Label 7 Year Old Bottle from the
            Hakushu Distillery in the 1980’s. It is 50ml and sold for £40. The next bottles is remaining
            anonymous, unless you read Japanese that is! It is a Suntory Tarudashi Gensyu bottled in
            a 50ml bottle in the1990’s. There were two of these for sale individually and they both
            fetched  £85. The final bottle in this row was
            probably the cheapest Japanese whisky in the
            auction. Just £6 bought the 50ml Nikka Mild
            Whisky from the 1980s. Our final Japanese
            whisky was sold on it’s side with the neck
            sticking out of the box. It is a 50ml Suntory
            Reserve Genshu. This one sold for £65.

            During lockdown I added Japanese Straight
            bottles to Miniature Bottle Library:

            I also added Straight bottles from Peru.
