It's a whisky diluted to 30%, which technically wasn't allowed to be sold as whisky in Japan. Customers didn't take to this bottling at all, so it disappeared from store shelves after just six months. Finding an unopened bottle today is almost impossible. Due to its age, the bottle has signs of storage and use.
