In the extended cut, he gets in to a fight with the director after he’s called a “neglo”, drunkenly spilling his drugs in the process, culminating in him crushing and snorting some Quaaludes off the floor with, I don’t know, three hookers?*

I prefer Nikka, but that was actually a pretty good commercial. Definitely better than any alcohol advertising these days.

I’ve never had Japanese whiskey, but I’ve actually heard good things about certain brands from booze snobs. They’ve been making whiskey in Japan for over one hundred years now, believe it or not.

Right now I’m drinking Taiwanese whisky. And very good it is, too.
Japanese? I’ve never had Suntory, but Yamazaki (owned by Suntory) is good.
