Karuizawa 1981 Splendid Age 35 Year Old

Distilled in 1981 at the now-silent Karuizawa Distillery, this 35-year-old whisky represents a pinnacle of Japanese single malt artistry. Matured for decades in ex-sherry casks, it embodies a rich and complex character unique to its mountainous Nagano Prefecture origin. Expect a deeply fruity nose with notes of dark cherry and spice, leading to a palate of dried fruits, chocolate, and a subtle smoky warmth. The ‘Splendid Age’ expression delivers a long, luxurious finish – a testament to time and masterful distillation.
