Hi zxmaus,
Yes I'm aware that whisky doesn't age in bottle but pity isn't it. Over here it's very hard to find Hibichi and Yamazaki I've asked many places I'll probably look up a friend who goes to Japan often to help me get it. I heard Nikka is quite good too but haven't tried it yet.
for forumers who are interested in learning more about whisky there's a website
Malt Madness - about single malt scotch whisky, this dutch guy has sampled 2500 different whisky since 1997 and written tasting notes for every single one of them.
Besides tasting notes there are also tips on proper ways to drink whisky, example there's a difference when drinking it in a tall wine glass versus short rounded tumbler glass and it's true, I've tried it ... interesting read.
