Can We Ever Make It Suntory Time Again? longreads.com

Ninety years later, around a dozen companies distill whisky in Japan, depending on how you count them: Suntory and Nikka.
During the 1960s, ’70s, and ’80s, there was Hi Nikka, Nikka Gold & Gold, Suntory Old Whisky, and Suntory Royal.
I knew that the people at Suntory who made this whisky had treated it as a work of art.
In 2018, Suntory announced that it would severely limit the availability of Hibiki 17 and Hakushu 12 in most markets.
Suntory doled out their remaining aged whiskies very carefully to try to satisfy their international markets.
