From the incomparable nonjatta.com website:

Miki Watanabe, boss of the huge Watami chain of restaurants and izakayas,(informal Japanese drinking establishment that serves food to accompany the drink) is the Richard Branson of Japanese business. He has made his own personality his main brand since coming straight out of university to found a single restaurant in 1984. He now has more than 630.

Watami has also been doing its single malt whisky homework. It seems to have a tie up with Suntory and has blends and single malts available from their range. Watami now stocks its own unique Yamazaki bottling. Predictably, given the Watanabe personality cult, it is called "Watami President Choice". It is a 12-year-old single malt but tasted quite different to me from the standard Yamazaki 12.

Age: 12 years

43% ABV / 66cl
