The top prizes — Yamazaki 12-Year and Hakushu 12-Year — are among Japan's most sought-after whiskies and often fetch high prices on the secondary market. All bottles are stored in the operator's own warehouse under strict temperature and humidity control to ensure they arrive in optimal condition.
What Is a Whisky Lottery?
A whisky lottery (mikuji) is a random-selection service where each entry receives one bottle chosen at random from a pre-announced lineup. The uncertainty of not knowing which bottle you'll receive is a key part of the experience.
The Tachibana E-Shuhan lottery guarantees a bottle with every entry — there are no blank draws — and carries the chance of receiving a premium bottle like Yamazaki or Hakushu. Customers have described the moment of opening the box as a rush of excitement, with many noting the care taken in curating the selection. The service is available across multiple major online stores including Amazon, Rakuten, and Yahoo! Shopping.
