The sushi really is pretty good; everything in the book (and video) store is in Japanese, but if you want Time magazine in Japanese, this is the place to get it; and they do have domestic liquor, but a wiiiiiide variety of sake, and even Japanese scotch...

There is no such thing as "Japanese Scotch". Scotch = whisley from Scotland. If it's not from Scotland, it's not Scotch!!! -- - RODNEY Next WDW Vacation? Who knows!

Actually, I was thinking of a fine Islay Scotch and got the words jumbled (DAMMIT). -- - RODNEY Next WDW Vacation? Who knows!

Yep. So what. If you were blindfolded and you tasted it, you'd say "Scotch." Really. I'm serious. There is less of a difference between some of the scotches I've had and Suntory than Kentucky bourbon and Tennessee whiskey. Even down to the peaty smokiness. It is, in effect, scotch. Though on the label, they do call it Pure Malt Whisky. (But I thought only scotch was a whisky...)
