I wrote a short guide on where you can purchase whisky in Japan.

Whisky
All of my whisky reviews are tagged by distillery, so you can easily go sus out additional reviews and opinions from myself and others. These are particular standout drams:
- Octomore 10.2 “διάλογος”
- A truly lovely 19 YR Highland Park from Thompson Brothers
- Bunnahabhain in Palo Cortado? Chef’s kiss!
- My first magnum, a Silver Seal Clynelish
- A rather unusual small IB Braes of Glenlivet / Braeval
- Glenfarclas Family Cask for Shinanoya / Tokyo Whiskey Fest
- A beautiful 38 year old blended malt
- Heartwood Convict Redemption 1
New distilleries I am excited about:
- Daftmill: 2007 winter batch

I may not write often about technology, since I spend my work shifts working with the stuff, but every now and again I dabble in this or that and may write up a post about it.
