Buy alcohol online in Japan?

Hi,
I've recently arrived, and am looking to buy some slightly more specific alcohols, but cannot find any stores that stock them.
I noticed Amazon sell alcohol, but are there any specific importers of spirits?
I'm looking for Plantation XO Rum, but I know that might be a pipe dream.
Thanks for any help!

http://item.rakuten.co.jp/kawachi/24612/Is this the one? You can find most alcohols if you know a bit of Japanese. Usually if you type in the English name and then the Japanese translation for the type of alcohol (in this case ラム), that should be enough. Also, also anything can be found on either Rakuten, Kakaku.com, or Amazon.jp

Wow, thanks for quick answer! So close, that's almost the right one! I'll keep searching, but thanks for the tips! Great help! :)
I've had this rum once, was blown away, and have dreamed of buying it ever since. Not sure why I waited untill I moved to Japan though!
It's the Plantation 20 Year Anniversary.
Thanks again!

No problem.
Actually, buying in Japan should be better because of the high yen.
Lot's of deals to be found on import products these days!
Now you've made me want to check out prices for some of my favorites!
