Breaking news - The Hibiki 17 Year-Old, a famed Japanese whisky by Suntory which featured in the 2003 hit movie “Lost In Translation”, will be officially discontinued. A recent feature by the Nikkei Asia Review showcased the huge sales growth Japanese whisky has experienced in the past decade. The skyrocketing prices of Japanese whisky don’t seem to make a difference to many buyers and investors. Rumors also suggest that aged Japanese stock may start reappearing after the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. I believe I speak for all the Japanese whisky fans out there, including Bill Murray, when I say this: you'll be sorely missed, Hibiki 17.
