About this whisky
- Region:
This exceptionally rare Karuizawa 1974, bottled as part of the Golden Age of Showa series, represents a pinnacle of Japanese whisky production before the distillery’s closure. Distilled in 1974 and matured for decades, it showcases the unique terroir of the mountainous region surrounding the now-silent stills. On the palate, anticipate an opulent tapestry of dried fruits, honeyed oak, and subtle spice, interwoven with a delicate smokiness and a long, lingering finish. A truly remarkable and collectible whisky, reflecting a bygone era of Japanese craftsmanship. This is a taste of history, distilled.
