Wild Turkey 12 (2022 re-release) is brutal to find in Tokyo — 35 shops that didn't have it
On the hunt for Wild Turkey 12 around Yokohama and Tokyo, specifically the current 2022 Japanese re-release. It turned out to be way harder to track down than I expected, so I'm posting every shop that came up empty to save other hunters the legwork.
This is a mix of places I physically walked into and places I called ahead. Either way, no WT12 in stock when I checked. Stock obviously changes, so your mileage may vary, but as of June 2026, these were all strikeouts.
Tokyo
- Liquor Mountain Ginza 777
- Liquor Mountain Kabukicho 1-chome
- Liquor Mountain Kabukicho 2-chome
- Liquors Hasegawa (main store, Yaesu)

- LiquorJOY (Ueno)
- IMADEYA Ginza
- LIFE VACATION Ginza
- Yamaya Ginza
- M Whisky Shop Ginza
- ori japanese whisky store (Ginza)

- Saito Liquor Store (Nishi-Shinjuku)
- Kakuyasu Nishi-Shinjuku
- Masutoh Liquor Shop (Yoyogi)
Yokohama
- Kakuyasu Kamiōoka (KY Liquor)
- KISSYO Higashi-Totsuka
- Naritaya (Konan)
- Yamatoya (Minami)
- Yamadaya (Minami)
- Yokohama Suzukiya (Minami)
- Yamaya Aobadai
- Yamaya Yokodai (Isogo)
Greater Kanagawa (Yamato / Zama / Sagamihara area)
- Takahashi (Yamato)
- Liquor Land Top Yamato
- Liquor Land Top Zama
- Yoshimura (Yamato)
- Ōya Shōten (Yamato)
- KISSYO bono (Sagami-Ōno)
Wild Turkey 12 was shockingly scarce. Struck out at every one of these, including the big chains (Liquor Mountain, Yamaya, Kakuyasu) and several well-known whisky specialists. The couple of spots that did have it were asking close to 2x retail, so fairly priced bottles are clearly out there but not easy to land.
If anyone knows a Tokyo or Yokohama shop currently sitting on WT12 at a sane price, drop it in the comments. It would save the next person (and me) a ton of (more) walking. Cheers.

Is there any way to recover photos from an iPhone after a failed update, boot loop, and restore?
I’ll try to make a long story short.
About a year and a half ago, I had an iPhone with a lot of photos on it, but my iCloud storage was full. One night, an automatic update failed, and the phone got stuck in a boot loop. I couldn’t log in or access anything.
After it had been stuck in the boot loop for about 15 hours, I decided to restore it using a backup I had saved on a desktop computer in my room. Unfortunately, that backup was from about a year earlier, so it didn’t include any of the photos I had taken since then.
At the time, I thought restoring the backup might somehow bring the photos back or recover them, but it seems like they were lost. I still have the old phone.
My question is: is there any possible way those photos could still exist somewhere, either on the phone, in iCloud, or buried in some kind of recoverable data? Or are they most likely gone for good?

Lofi/melodic used in videos about winter?
Looking for a chill/melodic song that I recall seeing used on multiple Instagram/TikTok videos a long time ago (2-3 years give or take, but could very well be wrong). I wanna say it was used in videos about winter or early-2000s nostalgia.
How I recall it goes: Ba da pa da ba da pa da dundedon, and here is a link of me trying to sing it: https://voca.ro/1jxWuzHANZFF
Details:
- To my knowledge, it does not have any vocals (or at least in the section that I'm thinking of)
- Sounds like it's on a piano or synthesizer.
What its NOT:
- Resonance by HOME
- "Snowfall" by Øneheart & reidenshi
- "Idea 10" or "Idea 22" by Gibran Alcocer
- "Memory Reboot" by VVOJ & Narvent
