JP-STR-111 Japanese Suntory Baseball shape , miniflaschen

⚾ Suntory Japanese Whisky – Baseball Shape (Miniflaschen)

Conclusion: There is no reliable evidence of a Suntory mini whisky bottle shaped like a baseball. No vintage catalogs, auction records, or collector references document such a design.

📌 Features & Details (Based on Research)

• Brand: Suntory

• Type: Japanese Whisky (Mini / Collectible)

• Claimed Feature: Baseball-shaped bottle — unconfirmed

• Evidence: None from major mini‑bottle collections or whisky‑collector databases

• Possible Origins of the Idea:

  • Misheard or misremembered design (e.g., golf‑ball vs. baseball)

  • Confusion with limited “sport-themed” Suntory bottles (but not documented for baseball)

  • A product that never officially existed or was very limited and undocumented

🎁 Packaging

• If it existed, packaging would likely need to accommodate a spherical or near-spherical design, making it more complex than typical miniatures.

• No listing or image shows a protective box or sleeve for a baseball-shaped Suntory whisky bottle.

⭐ Status & Collectibility

• Ideal For: Hypothetical collectors of novelty bottles — but as far as the records go, this item may be mythical / misattributed.

• Collectible Appeal: Very low to none (unless a “lost” prototype exists) because of the lack of verifiable examples.

• Rarity: If it ever existed, it would be extremely rare, but more likely the concept is based on a misunderstanding.

🍶 Tasting Notes

• Not applicable — since there is no confirmed “baseball-shaped” bottle, there are no tasting notes tied to such a design.

🎯 Serving Suggestions

• Not applicable — no confirmed product means no typical serving context.

📝 Review Highlights / Collector Commentary

• I found no collector or auction mentions of a baseball-shaped Suntory whisky bottle.

• On forums and mini‑bottle catalog sites, collectors mention golf‑ball bottles (like the golf‑shape mini whiskies from Suntory), but not baseball.

• Some confusion may stem from misremembering “ball shape” generically, without specifying what kind of ball.
