  The attached image is a screen capture from a [TV show](https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/tatort/tatort-vier-jahre-oder-team-koeln/das-erste/Y3JpZDovL2Rhc2Vyc3RlLmRlL3RhdG9ydC9hNmI3MzViYS0wYzhhLTRhMzYtYjE4Yy1jMjIwN2RhYzA1NWE/) (@ ~00:12:30).

  Unfortunately, it flashed for only a fraction of a second, and that's all that was shown.
  
  Though the label on the bottle says "Japanese whiskey," I cannot identify any brand of Japanese whiskey that matches this label.
  
  (This, in itself, does not mean much, though; I am pretty ignorant about Japanese whiskeys, in general.)
  
  From the little Japanese I know, I thought that the character shown along the label's right edge was 神 (= かみ = gods), but I could not find any Japanese whiskey brand online that has this character on its label.
  
  On the other hand, it is quite possible that this is not a real Japanese whiskey brand at all, but rather a made-for-TV prop.
  
  Can anyone recognize this label, and if so, what is the brand?

  ### Answer by username_3 on 2022-02-13. Score: 7
  
  At 12:12 you have another shot, where you better see the shape of the bottle. together with the black cap in your screenshot maybe that rings a bell for someone who is into whiskey?
  
  At 12:15 little more of the label, there it looks more like ...OREI than ...UREI. (or like username_2 says in the comments, it could mean [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yūrei](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y%C5%ABrei), but can't find any brand with that name either)
  
  I wasn't able to download the video, but maybe if you watch it in high quality you can see more details?
  
  My personal guess is, they took a cheap bottle from a german super market and relabeled by the movie company to avoid legal issues. or they have a warehouse full of movie requisites and took the one that looks most like a whiskey bottle. surest way would be to ask the movie company.
