When I filmed my review of Cask of Yamazaki 3Q70047, I wasn't by the fireplace at the @dornochcastle... I was in the dungeons! This is one of the best Yamazakis I have ever tried. Absolutely exceptional. Watch here to find out why: youtu.be/UeECQ-938KE

That week in Tokyo was fun. I went late January to avoid the crowds. Arrived and left on Wednesdays. Took a 14 hour walking tour of the city with @mactionplanet on Saturday to avoid the most crowded park day.
