A 22-karat gold coin worth $560 was also reported as missing along with the nearly $6,000 bottle of Suntory Hibiki whisky.
The State Department's internal watchdog revealed the missing whisky bottle in a new report. A gift vault in which presents given to government officials were stored was said to be in"a state of disarray" in January. The inspector general in charge of the investigation could not locate the nearly $6,000 bottle of Suntory Hibiki whisky, which had been aged for 30 years. A 22-karat gold coin was also reported to be missing.
Records show that 77 people had entered the vault between August 3, 2020, and January 31, 2021. The total number of visits between this time period was 3,051, with the majority of the figures involved having left government positions by the time the investigation began. Increased security measures have been recommended for the facility.
Gifts that were initially reported missing but eventually found include commemorative G-7 pewter trays, leather portfolios and marble trinket boxes. A representative for Pompeo said he knew nothing about the whisky, gifted to him in 2019 by the Japanese government, or the inquiry itself until the State Department had released their findings.Mike Pompeo's missing whisky bottle is a 30-year-old Suntory Hibiki bottle. The expensive drink is seen here with other types of whiskeys.The items were reported missing in August in a notice filed in the Federal Register.
Later, it emerged that a collection of porcelain and copper vases valued at $20,000 that the U.S. government bought as gifts for leaders planning to attend a Group of Seven summit before it was canceled also were missing.
