I must admit I have never tasted any Japanese whisky. My understanding is that the Japanese distillers learned their craft from the Scots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-35216\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9-940x940.png 940w, https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UPDATE:<\/strong> I am trying to work down my open bottles of bourbon before I open a new bottle.
