Karuizawa 1981 Splendid Age 35 Year Old

Karuizawa 1981, a truly exceptional whisky from the now-silent distillery nestled in the Japanese mountains, represents the pinnacle of Japanese single malt production. Matured for an impressive 35 years, this bottling showcases the profound impact of time and Japanese oak Hogshead maturation. Expect a complex and layered profile, brimming with notes of dark chocolate, dried apricot, and sandalwood, elegantly intertwined with a subtle smokiness and a lingering spice. The palate is richly textured, delivering a long, harmonious finish that speaks to the whisky’s remarkable age and impeccable craftsmanship.
